Save our coastal park & promenade: vote NO on Measure G in November

 In Uncategorized

On November 5, 2024, voters said YES to turning an eroding road to nowhere into a coastal park and promenade.

The stretch of the Great Highway from Lincoln to Sloat became Sunset Dunes Park, now the third most visited greenspace in San Francisco. And Sunset Dunes just keeps getting better, with public art, exercise and play equipment, seating, live music, and much more (check out upcoming events).

Unfortunately, some people haven’t embraced this incredible addition to San Francisco. Enough signatures were gathered to get a measure on the November 3, 2026 ballot to bring back vehicle traffic to this stretch of road and end Sunset Dunes as we know it: Measure G.

Let’s defeat Measure G

Walk SF is supporting the campaign to defeat Measure G and we hope you’ll join us!

Why we love and support Sunset Dunes

  • Sunset Dunes Park transformed pedestrian access on our Pacific coast. For decades, having vehicle traffic on the Upper Great Highway meant that pedestrians could only walk on the narrow, hilly path next to traffic. That’s because there is no path next to the beach. And you can’t walk on the beach itself if you have a stroller, wheelchair, or mobility limitations. Because the road space is relatively flat, it is more accessible to people with mobility limitations and devices, too.
  • This oceanside park and promenade is the largest pedestrianization project in California history, at two miles long!
  • More than half of visits to Sunset Dunes are on weekdays. This proves how the park meets a real need that people have every day: having significant safe spaces to walk, roll, hang out, and connect with nature and each other.
  • Sunset Dunes is the wisest, most climate-resilient way to use this stretch of coast. Preserving the Great Highway for vehicle traffic is a losing battle against climate-induced rising waters and beach erosion. It also encourages and supports more people using climate-friendly ways to get around.
  • Considering that an average of three people are hit every day as pedestrians in San Francisco, Sunset Dunes is necessary. We need meaningful spaces where we can walk without fear of dangerous vehicle traffic.

Car-free spaces are a key ingredient of pedestrian-first cities. If you agree, become a member of Walk SF today!
