Become a member and join us for our end-of-the-year members event!

Celebrate a great year with SFTR! Join us for this members-only event, where you'll be able to meet new friends, catch up with old ones, and talk to other public transit advocates like you! This is a great opportunity to mix and mingle with other SFTR members, through some fun games and trivia. 

 

Supervisor Safaí announced his decision to withdraw his proposed charter amendment!

Since its original proposal, over 300 people contacted their Supervisors to notify them of the amendment's threat to SFMTA funding. Thank you to every advocate who called, tweeted, emailed, and spoke out about this amendment! 

 SFTR will continue to advocate for modern, common sense, and equitable changes to the SFMTA's parking policies so transit can remain funded and service cuts can be avoided or reduced as the agency faces a fiscal cliff in the coming years.

 

Consider donating to SFTR for this year's #GivingTuesday

#GivingTuesday is a global generosity movement unleashing the power of people and organizations to transform their communities and the world.

We believe empowering everyday transit riders to speak up for rider-first policies. Our members speak up for important projects and transit issues, educate and engage other riders, provide ideas for our campaigns and guidance for our priorities.

By donating to SFTR, you gain access to a year-long membership and help us to advocate for a more equitable and accessible public transit in SF!

Illustrations of passengers and bus stops, plus interviews and portraits of bus and train operators will make one want to abandon the isolation of the automobile and jump on public transportation, be it Muni in San Francisco or whatever your hometown provides.

Colored pencil portraits of Muni operators, drawings of bus passengers, and B&W line drawings of bus stops by San Francisco artist Keith Ferris, accompanied by writer Lia Smith's in-depth interviews of Muni operators, who detail their day-to-day realities transporting passengers throughout the City and explain what drew them to the profession.
