Subject: Item 12: Maintain the 6 and 21 bus routes
I am writing in support of maintaining the 6 Haight/Parnassus and 21 Hayes bus routes. Both lines are critical equity routes, providing essential east-west transit connections for San Francisco residents. Eliminating these routes would severely impact accessibility for seniors, people with disabilities, and transit-dependent riders in the affected neighborhoods.
As a compromise, I would support combining the 6 and 21, connecting the 6's route through UCSF along Parnassus with the 21's route through Hayes Valley along Hayes and Grove. This would have the added benefit of restoring downtown access to the 21.
I also support moving the outbound 21 to Grove on Monday through Thursday, aligning both inbound and outbound 21 routes on Grove 7 days/week. The outbound 21 already runs on Grove Friday through Sunday to accommodate the Hayes Street Shared Space, and the inbound 21 has always run on Grove 7 days/week.
Thank you for your time.
