Startup Crawl: Your Chance To Meet A Dozen San Francisco Startup. On Friday November 20, Scribd is teaming with a bunch of other well known startups in San Francisco to hold a new event called Startup Crawl, where they’ll be taking shuttles to check out the offices (and meet the teams) of a dozen different companies, including Engine Yard, Justin.TV, and Yammer (you can see the full list below). The event is contracting three or four 56 passenger buses, which will be driving in a circuit between the startups (you can expect a bus every 15-20 minutes, but many of the offices are close enough to walk between them).

Each office will be doing something different, with activies including everything from hacking sessions to happy hours. The first shuttle leaves the Embassy Suites SFO/Burlingame at 5:30, and the last bus begins its last run around the circuit at 11 PM. To participate you don’t have to start at the Embassy Suites — you can also show up at any of the participating startups beginning at 5:30. Asian Heritage Street Celebration 2008. Geary Corridor Bus Rapid Transit - San Francisco County Transpor. Introduction Geary Bus Rapid Transit will improve Geary Boulevard with much-needed safety improvements and faster, more reliable bus service for the tens of thousands of people who use the 38 Geary and 38R Geary Rapid bus routes every day. Project improvements include red bus-only lanes, signal priority for buses, and safety improvements such as sidewalk extensions and accessible curb ramps.

Project Features More efficient and reliable transit makes bus service 20 percent quicker along the corridor. Buses arrive more frequently and improved reliability provides more consistent wait times. More accessible bus stops with sidewalk extensions make it easier to get on and off the bus, promote safer crossings and shorter crossing distances. A smoother roadway with newly paved streets. More reliable utilities with new water and sewer infrastructure. Timeline and Status Geary Bus Rapid Transit was implemented in two phases. Phase 1: Geary Rapid Project Phase 2: Geary Boulevard Improvement Project.
