Work crews are out today, but not for the Haight infrastructure project. Public Works is replacing some lateral sewer lines, as residents were complaining of back-ups. The work should take 2-3 days.

The Powell Street Safety and Sidewalk Improvement Pilot was unveiled today, closing Powell between Geary and Ellis streets (the 100-200 blocks) to most traffic for 18 months.

The San Francisco County Transportation Agency wants Geary commuters' input on a $30 million plan to redesign the corridor, which will include the demolition of two pedestrian bridges in Japantown.

Construction on the sewer system below Bryant Street between Eight and Ninth won't let up until early next year.

From now through 2018, Powell will get a new ceiling, LED lighting, new flooring and seating on the platforms, fixes for its perennially problematic elevator and escalators, and other improvements.

It's taken a year and a half, but the new crosswalk, complete with bulbouts, is finally on its way.

You can soon get to the Exploratorium by land and sea, thanks to the new landing that was part of the museum's lease obligation to the Port.

As a pilot project, Powell Street between Geary and Ellis streets will be closed to most traffic, except commercial vehicles, for at least 18 months starting this Friday.

A power outage reported by Cole Valley and Corona Heights locals affected 500+ residents last night, according to PG&E's outage map.

With recent grant applications denied, funding for improved lighting in the neighborhood is up in the air.

A tech commuter bus bottomed out coming around the corner at Haight and Ashbury this morning.

It's been almost a year since the work, originally scheduled for completion by summer 2015, got started.

Another sinkhole on Haight meant a sleepless night for local residents; neighborhood groups will gather on Monday.
