Flyer for an action Title: Demand a Safer Franklin Subtitle: A driver killed our neighbor here Date: Thursday March 14th, 7:30am Location: Franklin & Union below the text is a picture of people at that intersection holding signs such as "Safe Streets Now!!". it is overlaid with a cutout of a memorial to Andrew Zieman. Cards read "Thank you and goodbye Mr Andrew".

It's been over two years since Andrew Zieman was killed by a driver in front of the school he taught at, and the street is still just as dangerous today

The SFMTA has failed to make the street safer.

Come through to Franklin/Union on Thurs 3/14 at 7:30am to demand better.

One of the very first Safe Street Rebel actions was right after that tragedy. We heard from so many neighbors about how dangerous Franklin has been for years. 2024 is supposed to be when we reach Vision Zero, that requires action.

SFMTA promised a lane diet after the crash, but never followed through, citing the failed ideology of traffic engineering. This cannot stand. Pedestrian, biker, scooter (yes, even driver) safety is more important than car throughput. Join us next week.

SFMTA Rolling Back Planned Safety Measures on Franklin - Streetsblog San Francisco
A man was killed crossing Franklin in 2021 in front of Sherman Elementary. And now promises to make the street safe are coming undone thanks to an engineer who didn’t get the memo: LEVEL OF SERVICE is not the way to evaluate projects.
