SAN FRANCISCO

UPDATE
The entitled motorists have moved beyond political posturing.
It was barely 24 hours since the two mile stretch along the San Francisco Pacific Coast shoreline was permanently closed to cars.
It’s infuriating that the entitled motorists desire to slash, burn and break the law has sunk to the depth of criminal behavior. Motorists. A group in America which will never accept any limits on their false sense of entitlement. The political and community leader enablers of this crime need to be held accountable for this wanton act of vandalism.

It’s a historic event Liz and I could only have dreamed for. The two mile stretch of road polluted by motorists for decades is undergoing a seismic transformation.
As of today Great Highway Park is a reality. Approved by 55 percent of the voters last November this stretch of land along the Pacific Coastline of San Francisco is now a cyclist and pedestrian oasis.
Great Highway Park is the latest victory for The People who who continue to advocate for a more pedestrian and bicyclist friendly San Francisco.
“Car-free for good and celebrating it” was the headline in the San Francisco Chronicle on April 30, 2022. Celebrating passage of the ordinance by the Board of Supervisors making JFK Promenade in Golden Gate Park a car free oasis. A legislative vote which was affirmed by the voters in November 2022 with a resounding nearly two-thirds YES vote.
