Document Description
The San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency (SFMTA) proposes to implement the West Portal Station Safety and Community Space Improvements Project (project). The project would improve safety within the West Portal neighborhood, including near the West Portal Muni Metro station at Ulloa Street and West Portal Avenue. Changes include restricting northbound left-turn movements on West Portal Avenue at Ulloa Street, restricting westbound through movements on Ulloa Street at West Portal Avenue, making Lenox Way one-way southbound between Taraval and Ulloa streets, restricting southbound left turns on West Portal Avenue at Vicente Street, and designating full-time Muni-only lanes at the following locations: West Portal Avenue, northbound, from Ulloa Street to 230' southerly West Portal Avenue, southbound, from Ulloa Street to 120' southerly Ulloa Street, westbound, between West Portal Avenue and Lenox Way.
Outside the station entrance, space would be re-designed to improve safety by designating protected space for pedestrians to access the station. Additionally, new traffic calming measures would be implemented on several neighborhood streets as well as other safety enhancing changes. An additional element under consideration would include restricting eastbound through movements on Ulloa Street at West Portal Avenue.
