Description
Please do not remove the slow streets from Potomac St. It has been a wonderful haven for pedestrians and bicyclists throughout the pandemic. Removing the slow streets will bring heavy traffic via Head Royce including the AC bus. Please keep the slow streets here! It's been a boon to well being + safety, and a reduction in noise pollution.

Do you have a map proving this grade? Looking at a terrain map myself, it would seem that Rampart, Hearst, Scenic, or Damuth have equal or more gentle grades to get between Laguna and Lincoln.
I'm also all about being green: removing Potomac's slow street creates a cut in the contiguous slow street path from Waterhouse to Buell, which I'd argue would create an obstacle for peds/bikers using these slow street and make it _less_ of green use of the space.
