Shelter-in-Place Allows Muni to Analyze Sources of Delay

Image
Shelter-in-Place Allows Muni to Analyze Sources of Delay By Bonnie Jean von Krogh During shelter-in-place, San Francisco has set the pause button. Besides essential workers, people have stayed home, causing daily traffic congestion to feel like a distant memory. Over these months, Muni has continued to serve approximately 100,000 passengers a day for essential trips on a network of core routes. As traffic has virtually disappeared, Muni delays have disappeared with it.   These highly unusual circumstances allowed the SFMTA to analyze data for Muni travel times and key sources of delay in ways that would otherwise be impossible. By monitoring Muni travel times during shelter-in-place, we were able to quantify the impacts congestion has on Muni service during normal times. What we’re learning can help bring back our transit system in a way that addresses past problems, as the city begins to recover.   With fewer cars on the road, peak...

A Data-Driven Transportation Recovery

Image
A Data-Driven Transportation Recovery By Bradley Dunn Responding to the Covid-19 public health crisis has radically changed o ur transportation system. No one wants a disaster to put lives at risk and disrupt everyday life . Data is guid ing t he SFMTA , not just during our reaction to the crisis, but how we will thoughtfully recover.       Transit’s Recovery When shelter - in - place began and the SFMTA was forced to reduce Muni service, we identified how to focus our service reductions using data. Our Muni Core Service Plan prioritized our available resources based on locations of medical facilities, Muni’s Equity Strategy and data from shifting customer travel patterns observed during the first weeks of the COVID-19 shelter-in-place order. Our service plan kept all of San Francisco within one mile of an active Muni stop. As additional resources have become available, guided by the same data as well as additional information fr...
