Why Sidewalks and Pedestrian Safety?

The residents and merchants of Richmond district face several pedestrian safety and accessibility issues, especially along the major traffic corridors such as the Geary Blvd and Clement Street, (bicyclist not yielding to pedestrian and cars and other obstructions on the sidewalks). The goal of Senior University is to prepare Richmond Russian Speaking Resident Seniors on how to address these and other pedestrian issues.
