“Just a block from Caltrain’s Fourth and King streets station, city leaders and employees from micromobility company Lime celebrated Lime’s new headquarters at 444 Townsend Street with a ribbon-cutting ceremony on Thursday. The ribbon itself was fittingly attached across Lime’s electric bike, glider, and scooter.” New from @Jerold_Chinn 👇 thevoicesf.org/electric-rent…

There are folks using a single broken escalator to walk up and down to the platform.
Hey @SFMTA_Muni @SF311, this Embarcadero Muni escalator has been broken for THREE WEEKS. 😭 We pay some of the highest taxes in the country, yet apparently a functioning escalator is a luxury. My taxpayer dollars must be taking the stairs too. 💀

Replying to @Rmadjidi @SF311
Our staff are aware & working to get them repaired ASAP. The east up requires a special part that our vendor is trying to procure. West down has gearbox damage & the vendor has been informed. Elevator service b/t platform & mezzanine is still in service.
