SFMTA and the San Francisco County Transportation Authority (SFCTA) will be co-hosting a virtual public workshop recognizing the need for a new transbay rail crossing between San Francisco and Oakland on Monday, June 28th at 6:30 pm.  To watch the live event, please visit the program website.

The workshop is hosted by Link21, a long-range transportation program sponsored by the San Francisco Bay Area Rapid Transit District (BART) and the Capitol Corridor Joint Powers Authority (Capitol Corridor). Link21 is committed to a faster, more connected system, providing safe, efficient, and affordable travel for everyone throughout the Northern California Megaregion that encompasses the San Francisco Bay Area, the Monterey Bay area, the Sacramento area, and the Northern San Joaquin Valley. To participate in a preliminary survey and submit your feedback, please visit the program comment form.

SFMTA Director of Transportation, Jeffrey Tumlin and SFCTA Executive Director, Tilly Chang will introduce the proposal for a new transbay crossing as a solution to the challenges of increased travel demands, overcrowding and congestion on our regional transportation system. Link21 aims to increase connections between affordable housing and high-quality jobs. Additional goals and objectives are to support ongoing SFMTA projects, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, improve air quality and create viable alternatives to driving.

The existing transbay corridor which includes BART, the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge, buses, and ferry service is currently the most congested in the Northern California Megaregion, and one of the most congested corridors in the United States.  As such, Link21  proposes a new transbay rail crossing project to provide additional service across the Bay and improve Northern California's livability, economic competitiveness, and environment.

The workshop will feature live, interactive surveys where viewers can provide live feedback on what is most important to their transit wants and needs. Link21 will be providing additional surveys after the event as well as a second workshop this Fall 2021. For more information on Link21, please visit their website.

You're invited! 6/28 6:30 PM PST, Link21 Virtual Public Workshop for San Francisco. Co-hosted by: San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency, San Francisco County Transportation Authority. For more information visit Line21Program.org/events. Logos: Link21, BART, Capitol Corridor

Show HN: Tape It, iOS recording app for musicians Hello HN, Over the last 15 months, two friends and I developed the music recording app we felt we wanted based on our own needs as musicians. It's called Tape It [1] and has just recently hit the Apple App Store [2]. We put a lot of effort into a good UX to help musicians really focus on playing their instrument instead of pretending to be a recording engineer. The app records in stereo on newer iPhones (although that's a premium feature; the free version only records in standard mono audio quality). I would be really grateful for advice from this community on how to best approach marketing. We had a great TechCrunch article covering our launch [3], and we posted it on various music websites. Turns out advertising on Google or Apple Search is a dark art, though. We have some good ideas for developing a good social media presence, but they will take time. Please hit us with feedback, opinions and advice that you think a young ind...
