PW – Bayview Transportation Improvements

This project will rehabilitate and reconfigure the right-of-way in the in the Bayview and Hunters Point Shipyard development areas to increase roadway capacities and increase safety and accessibility. It will reduce truck traffic on Third Street and residential streets and develop a more direct truck route between US 101 and existing and planned development in the Bayview and Hunters Point Shipyard.

PW – Harvey Milk Plaza

This project would regrade, repave, and re-landscape the current Harvey Milk Plaza in coordination with the SFMTA Castro Station elevator project. Private fundraising and grants are expected to provide the majority of funding for this project.

SFPUC - Strategic Distribution Investment

A key priority in Power’s Business Plan is build out of SFPUC-owned distribution systems in order to reduce costs and ensure customer stability. SFPUC’s first such effort was the Bay Corridor Transmission and Distribution (BCTD) project which will be complete in 2022. However, significantly more investment is needed to meet anticipated demand over the next 10 – 15 years. In fact, Hetchy Power load growth is anticipated to more than double over this period. City departments are projecting substantial growth (over 200 MW) from fleet electrification (SFMTA and Port), redevelopment projects (OCII and Port), and EV charging which will serve municipal, housing, and commercial loads. SFPUC has initiated a process to plan for strategic investments to meet this demand. Over the next year, Power will complete the analysis to refine and vet these investment opportunities. 

PW – Streetscape Improvement Program
 

The Streetscape Program enhances neighborhood streets, alleys, and plazas across the City through best practices for multi-modal safety, economic, and beautification improvements. Typical improvements include Vision Zero bulbout improvements, transit improvements, street tree planting, site furnishings, lighting upgrades, as well as pedestrian and bicycle safety features such as pedestrian islands, bike lanes, crosswalk enhancements, and other traffic calming measures.

The estimated cost for the Streetscape Improvement Program is $600.5 million over the next 10 years.

PW – Utility Undergrounding

Overhead utility wires and related infrastructures are potential public safety hazards and a visual blemish on San Francisco’s vistas. This project would involve relocating overhead utility wires underground. Undergrounding utilities reduce the frequency of needed maintenance but require a substantial up-front investment. 

Generally, undergrounding costs roughly $8 million per mile. The estimated cost to underground utilities across the City over the next 10 years is over $1.1 billion.

PW – Curb Ramp Program

San Francisco is committed to improving curb ramps and providing accessible paths of travel for people with disabilities. Each fiscal year, Public Works and the Mayor’s Office on Disability (MOD) develop a prioritized list of locations for each of San Francisco’s supervisorial districts. Resident requests have one of the most significant impacts on prioritization of curb ramp locations citywide.

The estimated cost to continue the current curb ramp program is $115.6 million over the next 10 years. The Plan recommends $48.9 million from the General Fund towards this need. An additional $17.9 million is expected from State and Prop K funding.

PW – Curb Ramp Sub-Sidewalk Basement Program

As Public Works develops an overarching strategy to tackle the most structurally complex curb ramp locations, some planning and design work has begun for curb ramps with sub-sidewalk basements (over 100 confirmed locations citywide, with hundreds more under investigation), which are significantly more challenging and expensive to address than those in the standard curb ramp program.  

The estimated cost for curb ramps with sub-sidewalk basements is $107 million over the next 10 years, which will be addressed as funds allow from the General Fund Pay-Go Program.

PW – Street Tree Planting and Establishment

The Urban Forest Master Plan, Phase I: Street Trees, adopted unanimously by the Board of Supervisors, recommends growing the street tree population by planting 2,500 trees annually, in addition to trees that need to be replaced. This requires Public Works to plant approximately 6,000 trees a year.

The estimated cost for street tree planting and establishment is $189.7 million over the next 10 years. While $18.2 million has been identified through Prop K and other local sources, an unfunded need of $171.5 million remains.

PW – Better Market Street

This project will redesign Market Street as a more pedestrian, bicycle, and transit-oriented street. An ongoing, inter-agency coordination to build a complete street include: repaving of the roadway, sidewalk and crosswalk reconstruction, curb ramps, new street trees and landscape elements, replacement of MUNI overhead wires and upgrades to the traffic signal infrastructure, street lighting upgrades, sewer repair and/or replacement, water main work, and replacement of Emergency Firefighting Water System facilities and infrastructure. The project will extend from Steuart Street in the Financial District through Octavia Boulevard.

The cost of Phase 1 (on Market Street from Fifth to Eighth Streets, excluding the segment between McAllister and Charles J. Brenham) is $103.8 million and is fully funded through a combination of local, state, and federal sources. An additional $9.1 million has been identified for future phases.

SFPUC – Treasure Island Wastewater Improvements

On October 1, 1997, concurrent with the operational closure of the Treasure Island Naval Station, the City entered into a Cooperative Agreement with the U.S. Navy in which the City agreed to take responsibility for caretaker services on Treasure Island and Yerba Buena Island. Through this agreement, the SFPUC provides utility operations and maintenance for the electrical, natural gas, wastewater, and stormwater systems on the islands. 

The SFPUC has developed a work plan for creating a public power utility serving both of the islands. The capital projects identified are required to support the future developments’ electric load. Current planning shows that the existing electrical overhead poles, lines, and substation are adequate to serve the first phase of development. When the load approaches the design limit of the lines at approximately 10 megawatts, the lines will have to be upgraded and installed underground. 

This project provides continued funding for a new tertiary four-million gallon per day wastewater treatment facility for the Treasure Island/Yerba Buena Island service area to replace the existing, aged facility. The new treatment facility will include influent screening, a combined primary/secondary treatment process, sludge thickening and truck load-out, disinfection, odor control, and tertiary treatment.

The cost of SFPUC Wastewater’s Treasure Island Improvements Program is approximately $152.6 million through FY2033.
