The Great Highway along San Francisco's Pacific coast

YESGreat Highway for Everyone

One coast. Shared fairly.

Weekdays for the people who keep this city moving. Weekends for everyone who wants the ocean.

The Balance

Keep the weekends.
Restore the workweek.

This is not a fight between cars and parks. It is a proposal to stop treating one neighborhood's commute as someone else's luxury amenity — and to share the coast like grown-ups.

Weekday access restored
Weekends & holidays for recreation

Friday evening through Monday morning — and every holiday — remains closed to private vehicles. The park stays. The commute returns.

Outer Sunset neighborhood toward the Pacific

Why Yes

A city that works
for people who work.

Prop K passed citywide. The neighborhoods that live with this road rejected it. Then they recalled the supervisor who forced it. Then they elected a Sunset native who understands the difference between a park and a punishment.

Nurses & caregivers

People who clock in when the rest of the city clocks out. They need a coast road that works on Tuesday — not just a postcard on Saturday.

Westside families

In the Sunset, more than half of households own two or more cars. That is not ideology. That is how working San Francisco gets across town.

Chinese-American neighbors

The people closest to this road rejected permanent closure by nearly two-to-one. A city that lectures about equity should start by listening to them.

Local merchants

Hardware stores, restaurants, and corner shops do not survive on weekend vibes alone. Customers still have to arrive.

“A citywide majority does not get to permanently confiscate a neighborhood's working road — then call disagreement anti-democratic.”

The argument that wins November

The Cost Scare

They want you afraid of a number they already owed you.

Opponents say reopening will cost nearly $14 million. Look closer. Roughly $13.2 million of that is traffic-signal replacement SFMTA itself admitted was needed because the equipment was past its useful life — with or without a park.

$13.2M

Deferred signal maintenance the city already owed the west side — not a cost invented by this measure.

$750K

The real price of removing temporary amenities and restoring a corridor working people rely on — in a $15.9 billion city budget.

Prop K closed a road. It did not mandate a park. Temporary seating and art were installed afterward — then used as a sunk-cost argument against restoring what neighbors never agreed to lose. That is not planning. That is politics by furniture.

Straight Talk

What they say. What is true.

“This undoes democracy.”

Democracy did not end in 2024. District 4 rejected Prop K by 64%. Voters then recalled the supervisor who championed it — by nearly 63% — and elected a Sunset native who ran on restoring balance. Ballot measures exist so cities can course-correct when a citywide majority overrides the people who live with the consequences.

“It’s all-or-nothing against the park.”

Wrong. Weekends and holidays stay recreational. Emergency, transit, and official vehicles keep access at all times. This measure restores weekday use for people who cannot rearrange their lives around a full-time closure — while protecting the coast for everyone else when it matters most.

“Traffic somehow evaporated.”

Spreadsheets are not the same as a Tuesday afternoon on 19th Avenue. Chain of Lakes absorbed thousands of diverted trips. Neighbors live that diversion every school run and every shift change. A coast road that worked for decades should not be sacrificed to prove a theory.

The Record

The west side already voted — more than once.

This campaign is not nostalgia. It is the unfinished business of a neighborhood that refused to be overruled and then forgotten.

64%

District 4 opposed Prop K

The people who live here never consented to permanent closure.

62.7%

Recalled Joel Engardio

September 2025 — with nearly 43% turnout in a special election.

64.6%

Elected Alan Wong

June 2026 — a Sunset native who ran on restoring weekday access.

15,626

Signatures submitted

July 2026 — well past the threshold to put balance on the ballot.

The coast belongs to everyone —
including the people who drive it.

Balance is not radical. Permanent closure of a working corridor — against the will of the neighborhoods that depend on it — is.

Take Action
