As part of our weekly 'Meet the Candidates' series, we asked: What specific actions will you take to address pedestrian safety in District 1?
Connie Chan, Jeremiah Boehner, Jen Nossokoff, Marjan Philhour and Sherman D'Silva are running for District 1 supervisor in the November 2024 election.

This week, we added information on how long the candidates have lived in the district they are running to represent. More information on their endorsers and campaign finance will be updated in the coming weeks.
Long-term pedestrian safety planning is critical, and these measures can’t come fast enough. In the immediate short term, we must advocate for: Street and crosswalk markings need to be well-maintained and well-lit as well. Adding Bollards in front of some of our bus stops will help prevent accidents from becoming deadly when they do happen.
The interim AND long-term solution to this problem is 100 percent traffic enforcement by SFPD. We need to STOP making excuses for people not following the law. Persons driving with expired tags, without valid licenses, speeding and with mechanical deficiencies should be ticketed. Bicyclists who do not follow the law should be cited. And to be fair, any person crossing illegally should also be ticketed.
