Seattle Department of Transportation traffic engineer, Dongho Chang, was in San Francisco last week for a NACTO meeting. He’s got some wonderful insights on streets in the city and found Market Street to be a great place for all modes represented–much like our Broadway in Capitol Hill (once the streetcar gets going!) Maybe our own Market Street in Ballard can look like this one day… What do you think?
Whoa! Market st! I'm shocked and amazed. All these modes in one small st pic.twitter.com/2adrfgb3pI

At a minimum they need to finally repave Market St. Its getting pretty dangerous for bikes in its current state.
Could bus exclusive lanes though the market St. Corridor help the 44? Wallingford will still be a massive bottleneck…
