The insulators are supposed to prevent electricity that runs through the third rail from grounding and starting a fire, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The same problem caused an equipment fire on the tracks at the Walnut Creek Station on July 30, Huckaby said. That afternoon, firefighters from the Contra Costa County Fire Protection District extinguished the blaze. The entire disruption lasted about 90 minutes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Huckaby said it's unclear if there is some sort of systemwide problem with the protective devices.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Friday's fire forced BART to halt trains in San Francisco and the Peninsula at the very beginning of the morning commute. That snarled the entire system.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Huckaby said crews from BART and the San Francisco Fire Department had a tough time extinguishing the blaze.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Crews inspected the tracks and sent inspection trains through Balboa Park to ensure it was safe.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trains began running through Balboa Park again -- under manual control and using just one track -- shortly before 7 a.m.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Huckaby said single-tracking from Balboa Park to Daly City will likely continue all day Friday. He estimates the resulting slowdown through that section could add an extra 20 minutes to trips.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Damage to the automatic train control system at Balboa Park will be repaired overnight, Huckaby said. That system regulates train speeds from BART's central command center in Oakland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The cause of Friday's malfunction won't be known until crews can get a look at the insulator when they start those repairs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The fire took place the day before BART planned to shut down service between Glen Park and Daly City this weekend for previously scheduled maintenance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>KQED's Ryan Levi contributed reporting to this post.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

The sidewalks are bustling with pedestrians while the streets are jammed with cars, buses and trucks, especially during commute hours. Many drivers making turns ignore the battered white safety posts and fading pedestrian zones installed by the city.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But on a recent Friday evening, a trio of safe streets activists wearing brightly colored safety vests arrived on their bicycles with a trailer of orange cones. They spruced up the intersection with an eye toward making it friendlier for those on foot: Cones were placed to slow drivers making the turn and to shorten crossing distances for pedestrians.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"There's a psychological effect of the orange cone on the automobile driver, and we wanted to bring that to the street,\" said one of the activists, who wants to remain anonymous because the installation isn't legal. \"We want the city to have more urgency protecting bikers and pedestrians in San Francisco.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The activists say they're inspired by similar guerrilla actions in \u003ca href=\"http://www.seattlebikeblog.com/2013/04/04/guerrilla-road-safety-group-politely-installs-illegal-bike-lane-protectors-on-cherry-street/\" target=\"_blank\">Seattle\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"http://www.portlandmercury.com/bike-issue-2016/2016/07/20/18394894/demanding-more-from-the-city\" target=\"_blank\">Portland\u003c/a> and New York, and that they've been spurred to action by the high number of deaths and injuries on San Francisco streets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They point out that despite the city's Vision Zero effort, which has a goal of ending all traffic deaths by 2024, 26 people have died in traffic collisions so far in 2016.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://sfgov.org/scorecards/traffic-fatalities\" target=\"_blank\">City statistics\u003c/a> from the last seven fiscal years -- a period from July 1, 2009, through June 30, 2016 -- show a total of 214 fatalities, an average of 30 a year.

He says that incident, which involved a driver who sped through a red light, turned him into a bike activist. Shortly after the collision, he wrote \u003ca href=\"https://medium.com/@bradmcmanus/to-ed-lee-re-vision-zero-86c2bbffd7d5?source=linkShare-68f98a8ba36a-1470427840\" target=\"_blank\">an open letter\u003c/a> to Mayor Ed Lee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's become really clear to me, after seeing that crash, that I need to speak up about this. It's something that I largely didn't really care about,\" said McManus, who adds that he went back to the scene to study the intersection and has become \"obsessed\" with safe streets issues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I am feeling a real sense of urgency on this cause. I want the city and tacticians such as the SFMTrA to be making incremental improvements so that we can start making our streets safer today,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Though he has not taken part in an action, McManus is planning to donate money to support the SFMTrA's work.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The group has gotten support from \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/JaneKim/status/755088755820638208\" target=\"_blank\">Supervisor Jane Kim\u003c/a>, among others.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think it's great what they're doing,\" said Nicole Ferrara, executive director of Walk San Francisco. \"The group is looking at some of the inadequacies of our streets and how simple things like cones ... can start to make our streets safe.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Street safety activists have criticized Mayor Ed Lee and city transportation officials for what they've characterized as an inadequate response to pedestrian and cyclist deaths -- criticism that \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2016/06/23/two-san-francisco-cyclists-killed-in-hit-and-run-crashes/\" target=\"_blank\">reached a crescendo\u003c/a> after the deaths of Miller and Slattery in June.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That tone changed somewhat last week after \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2016/08/04/san-francisco-mayor-issues-safe-streets-directive-following-criticism-from-advocates/\" target=\"_blank\">Lee announced\u003c/a> he was \"accelerating\" some Vision Zero projects and ordering improvements in the areas where the two cyclists were recently killed. They include protected bike lanes on Seventh and Eighth streets and improvements on JFK Drive in Golden Park. The San Francisco Bike Coalition called it a \"bold commitment.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As to the guerrilla street cone project?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Paul Rose, a spokesman for the SFMTA, said the cones would have to be removed because they might cause confusion and because only the transportation agency and its contractors are authorized to place infrastructure on the streets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We hear the calls for better bikeways and we couldn't agree more,\" said Rose. \"We do know that we can do more and do it better and faster, and we're getting there.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rose said that since 2010, when a judge \u003ca href=\"http://sf.streetsblog.org/2010/08/06/cyclists-cheer-as-judge-finally-frees-san-francisco-from-bike-injunction/\" target=\"_blank\">lifted an injunction\u003c/a> that had stalled a city plan for improved bike infrastructure, the agency has installed more than 13 miles of protected bikeways and 14 miles of buffered lanes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite that progress, the San Francisco Transformation Agency activists say much more needs to be done -- especially when it comes to making the city's many high-injury corridors safer. That's why they plan to continue their guerrilla street actions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"What we want is a real commitment top down in the city government to address this, and we want them to stand up and say pedestrian safety and bicycle safety is incredibly important in San Francisco,\" said one of the activists. \"It is central to the quality of life.\"\u003c/p>\n\n",

We know that significant residential units are being built in that area, and this project is going to help accommodate that growth in use at that station.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Many of those new jobs are expected to come from \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2015/09/23/uber-comes-to-oakland-in-a-big-way/\">Uber's new Oakland headquarters\u003c/a>, which will occupy the old Capwell's/Sears building at 20th and Broadway and open next year. An entrance connecting 19th Street Station to the building has been shuttered for years but will be reopened as part of the project.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other practical upgrades, including additional fare gates, two new glass elevators, glass fare barriers and \"bike escalators\" to help cyclists roll bikes up and down staircases, are being made to accommodate the increasing number of riders using 19th Street Station.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The project also includes station upgrades like new paint, repairs to wall and flooring, LED lights and art installations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schaaf said the improvements will go a long way toward encouraging commuters to get out of their cars.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The 19th Street Station is truly a hub not just for the BART system but for our bike system, our pedestrian pathways, all of the AC Transit lines,\" she said. \"This is a central place for all the users of active transportation and public transportation to access jobs and housing.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some $1.5 million of the grant will go to street projects focused on making it easier and safer for people to access public transportation. The city will be adding new LED street lighting on nearby thoroughfares, such as 20th Street and Webster Street, and expanding its Uptown Pedestrian Wayfinding Pilot Project to improve signage in the area between 19th Street Station and Lake Merritt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The first phase of construction is expected to begin in 2017.\u003c/p>\n\n",

An entrance connecting 19th Street Station to the building has been shuttered for years but will be reopened as part of the project.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other practical upgrades, including additional fare gates, two new glass elevators, glass fare barriers and \"bike escalators\" to help cyclists roll bikes up and down staircases, are being made to accommodate the increasing number of riders using 19th Street Station.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
