If you live in the Richmond, ride the 38/L, or are just interested in helping improve San Francisco transit, SPUR is looking for volunteers to help spread the word about the upcoming GoGeary project. The GoGeary project will provide pre-pay platforms (like Metro), new buses, timed street signals and dedicated bus lanes to help ease the crowding and congestion that the 38 Geary is notorious for.
We are looking for people to:
- Canvas the 38 with flyers
- Petitioners to get signatures/address from:
- people waiting to go home after work
- people waiting to go work
- any other time the bus is running (such as at 2am when service is… interesting)
- People to come to 2 critical city meetings to show community support
- Other Transit volunteer opportunities
If you are interested in helping, please contact me at ballew@sublinear.net. SPUR will be starting this next week, and I’ll contact you with the information you’ll need. With your help, we can make sure this project passes the board of supervisors’ approval in May, so the riders of the 38 Geary can see improvements to the line as soon as possible.
