I'm sure it's a total coincidence (yeah right) that this is happening on the same street (Van Ness) that is being fouled by the noise and pollution caused by "rapid bus" Muni service.
this is pathetic for the city with the highest per capita budget in the US and the most wealthy MSA. We should be spending mass amounts of money on infrastructure, meaning fixing the roads, expanding the freeways and investing in good public transport
More proof that cars are the most important mode of transport. What causes pavement to degrade? Motor vehicles. Let's cut with the bike stuff now.
Poorly maintained streets mean discomfort or repair bills for motorists. For cyclists potholes can mean serious injury. If San Francisco didn't have all the property tax income, this city would be Stockton by the bay.
