Think so

On the other hand it eliminates the existing unsafe ramps on westbound harbor

This project includes a bike path on the north side of harbor dr!

Unexpected news: a short stretch of Mira Mesa Blvd next to a new development has a protected bike lane and protected half intersection

Hmm sandag’s 2025 regional plan near term actions include studying a “VMT mitigation bank” wonder what that is

It’s hidden in a report somewhere, but they made some design changes so that the crest canyon alignment (and maybe Camino Del Mar idr) in the EIR will be studied at 110 mph

The (new?) trolleys have some nice digital displays, but they only say “thank you for riding with us” at the moment

All the parking is supposed to be eventually removed for bike lanes

It is! Balboa Avenue Transit Center

Blue line bound for sdsu

Was looking through the DEIR for midway rising and found that Kurtz Street is planned to have 13 ft wide lanes…

Carroll canyon road in Mira Mesa with a median that includes curbs and space for a transitway, currently filled with plants

Recent street view imagery shows Carroll canyon road taking shape with a dedicated transitway.

What's in — and what's missing from — San Diego's new 'Street Design Manual' The city's design standards on everything from crosswalks to medians to bike lanes haven't been overhauled in more than 20 years.

Take my hand as I guide you through San Diego's new (draft) Street Design Manual and what it does — or doesn't do — to build a safer, more sustainable and more livable city.

Been working on this one for a while, hope you enjoy! www.kpbs.org/news/public-...

At least Eldon doesn’t seem to do much locally. One time some ucsd Econ professor basically took over a uccpu meeting giving a 15 min long public comment on why it shouldn’t be upzoned

A ucsd professor!

A bit disappointing and confusing that the second entrance/exit at ucsd central campus is emergency exit only. Would be convenient for bus transfers if it was always open

This process remains very silly, because the racetrack view dr portal has not been studied or mentioned until this graphic, and remaining on the bluffs is guaranteed to be rejected by the coastal commission and anyone who lives there

Apparently the CPC wants a moratorium on infill development because of fire risks?

New alignments map: - along I-5 but exiting near the racetrack (previously exited in Solana beach) - along crest canyon but with slower speeds and curves that keep it mostly in the canyon away from private property - under Camino Del Mar - reinforced double tracked bluffs

SANDAG staff proposes studying the following new alt alignments:

- along I-5 but exiting near the racetrack (previously exited in Solana beach)
- along crest canyon but with slower speed curves that keep it away from private property
- under Camino Del Mar
- reinforced double tracked bluffs

You can submit comment to sandag before the board meeting

Sandag studied 16 more Del Mar tunnel alignments, including realigning *the entire north county section* to the 5 to appease Del Mar nimbys

It seems like emergency vehicles already have signal priority at intersections, what’s holding us back from giving it to buses?

The first draft of the college area community plan update is out:

- most single family areas left untouched, upzoning mostly confined to arterials (but still up to 27000 new homes apparently)
- bus lanes on parts of ECB and college
- road diet and promenade along part of montezuma
- new bike lanes

Part of the bayshore bikeway project I think?

I think it’s getting removed soon

Streets that got flex posts in 2024 (that I know of):

Convoy St
Balboa Ave
Regents Rd
Nobel Dr
Clairemont Mesa Blvd (maybe, idr)

Streets that didn’t:
Mira Mesa Blvd

Streets that didn’t get bus/flex lanes: all of the above

ICYMI over the holidays, we've put out a list of 9 ways to cut costs and improve timelines for transit infrastructure - without gutting community input or environmental review. Some of examples of why these are needed: calelectricrail.org/transit-capi...

Some nice trolley service improvements coming later this month, and the overnight bus to the border!

AB 2503 became active earlier this week. Who will be the first agency to use it to cut emissions on existing rail lines without lengthy environmental review?
