Lake between Arguello and 28th Ave became a Slow Street in 2020, and is used as a safe route for active transportation through the Richmond District by children traveling to school, people commuting to work, and residents of all kinds walking, rolling, wheeling, and gathering. Almost 2,000 people per day use the corridor for essential travel, exercise, and recreation, and collisions have plummeted. In August 2021, the SFMTA Board of Directors voted to maintain Lake as a post-pandemic Slow Street because of its broad popularity with the neighborhood and strong daily usage. Now, Slow Lake is under threat. Organized opposition is trying to once again make Lake a speedway for Ubers detouring on hyper-optimized city routes, and they're organizing backroom deals with city officials to try to make it happen. Don't let them get away with it! Sign the petition today to Keep Lake Slow! About Slow Streets Slow Streets are streets that are open for walking, running, wheeling, biking and playing. Cars are 2nd class citizens on these streets. It is illegal for though-car traffic to use this street, while residents can still enter and exit their garages (and parking is still there). Cars are allowed to travel on the street for under one block and to reach a destination on that block. Keep Lake Slow by joining the movement to make this change permanent. https://actionnetwork.org/petitions/keep-lake-slow
