“The stars aligned for this repaving job,” said Therese Topacio, a project manager with Public Works’ Street Resurfacing Program who spearheaded the effort. “It's rare to pave this many blocks in a short amount of time without running into coordination conflicts.”
With a goal of finishing the job before students returned to nearby Marina Middle School on Aug. 19, our crews worked diligently and efficiently, finishing the repaving effort by Aug. 6.
Our Building and Street Repair crews began repaving Fillmore Street, between Lombard Street and Marina Boulevard, on July 29, coordinating closely with the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency.
🧵 Last month, Public Works crews made quick work of an expedited paving project in the Marina – just in time for the start of a new school year.
