About San Francisco Transit Riders:
San Francisco Transit Riders (SFTR) is the city’s member-supported, grassroots advocate for excellent, affordable, and growing public transit. We believe that empowering everyday transit riders to speak up for rider-first policies will bring us the world-class transit system we need for a livable, sustainable, and accessible San Francisco.
Deploying an equity and sustainability-focused understanding of several of these issues, SFTR is taking a proactive stance to support the voices of marginalized and underrepresented communities, supporting and rebuilding transit service levels, restoring current and future funding streams for stability and growth, and ensuring the safety and security of transit operators.
Our Values:
- We value rider-centric policies. We listen to riders; we lead with riders.
- We value equity. We advocate for affordable, dependable, frequent, safe, accessible public transit for the broadest population, with a consistent focus on equitable service and access.
- We value the pro-transit voice. We believe in the positive impact and potential of public transit.
- We value practicality. We look for short-term pragmatic solutions while pushing for a long-term vision and demanding accountability from our agencies and leaders.
- We value sustainability. Public transit is the most sustainable way for people to get around in a dense city. It promotes a vibrant economy and invests in the social good.
- We value a visionary approach to planning. We support thriving public transit systems that are innovative, inspirational, and growing.
- We value respect. We respect members, riders, and partners, even when we disagree. We have and teach empathy for others, and we acknowledge riders’ dignity.
