            The San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency (SFMTA) proposes to implement transportation safety improvements on South Van Ness Avenue, between 14th Street and Cesar Chavez Street in San Francisco, as part of the South Van Ness Avenue Quickbuild Project. The project would create safer conditions by improving pedestrian visibility and safety as well as decreasing traffic speed along the project corridor.

                            This project in its approved form has been determined to be exempt from environmental review because it is eligible for a Statutory Exemption per Public
Resources Code section 21080.25 since it would implement bicycle and pedestrian facility improvements; improve customer information and wayfinding for transit riders, bicyclists, or pedestrians; will be carried out by a public agency; is located within an existing public right of way in an urbanized area; would not add physical infrastructure that increases new automobile capacity on existing rights-of-way; would not require the demolition of affordable housing units; would not exceed a cost of one hundred million dollars ($100,000,000) in 2020 United States dollars; and would be constructed by San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency and Public Works Shops and would not require the use of contractors for labor.
