| Mission Street and Geneva Avenue Infrastructure Improvement Project
Project Update:
This contract has been awarded to Bauman Landscape and Construction. The contractor is currently working on the submittal process and obtaining the necessary permits. We anticipate that construction will commence in early November 2022.
Project Description:
San Francisco Public Works, the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency (SFMTA), and the San Francisco Public Utilities are partnering to bring safety improvements and infrastructure upgrades to the Excelsior and Outer Mission neighborhoods. The Mission Street and Geneva Avenue Infrastructure Improvement Project includes approximately forty sidewalk bulb-outs, upgraded traffic signals at twenty locations, sewer main replacement at ten locations, concrete street base replacement work and street repaving throughout the project area. The project limits are:
- Geneva Avenue: Prague Street to Mission Street
- Mission Street: Geneva Avenue to Highway 280 Overpass (Trumbull Street)
Mission Street and Geneva Avenue are part of San Francisco's Vision Zero High Injury Network - the 13% of city streets where 75% of the severe and fatal collisions occur. The City and County of San Francisco adopted Vision Zero as a policy in 2014, committing to build better and safer streets, educate the public on traffic safety, enforce traffic laws, and adopt policy changes that save lives. The goal is to create a culture that prioritizes traffic safety and to ensure that mistakes on our roadways don’t result in serious injuries or death. The result of this collaborative, citywide effort will be safer, more livable streets as we work to eliminate traffic fatalities.
Once construction starts, we'll be sending regular e-updates to inform neighbors about the current and upcoming scopes of work, possible impacts, weekend work, completed project milestones, etc. Neighbors interested in receiving e-updates could SIGN-UP HERE.

Project Sequencing & Duration
The overall project duration is anticipated to be approximately 3 years. However, in order to minimize any impacts associated with construction, this project will be completed in segments. A completion timeline has been placed on each segment to minimize the time it is under construction. There will be an overlap in segments as work is completed in one segment and starts on the next one. The segments are as follows:
Segment I
Geneva Avenue (Mission Street to Prague Street)
(Approximately 11 months / November 2022 – October 2023)
Segment II
Mission Street (Geneva Avenue to Russia Avenue)
(Approximately 10 months / September 2023 – June 2024)
Segment III
Mission Street (Russia Avenue to Theresa Street)
(Approximately 11 months / May 2024 – July 2025)
Segment IV
Mission Street (Theresa Street to Trumbull Street/ Hwy 280 overpass)
(Approximately 9 months / June 2025 – January 2026) |
