Protest Mayor Lurie returning cars to Market Street
August 26, 2025 @ 5:00 pm - 6:00 pm
Before going car-free, five of the city’s ten most dangerous intersections were on Market Street, and just crossing to the Muni platform could be a gamble.
But tomorrow, Mayor Lurie will allow Waymo, Uber Black, and Lyft Black to start driving on the car-free section of Market Street. This opens the door for even more vehicle traffic.
Walk SF is joining partners in protesting this unacceptable step backward for our city.
When: Tuesday, August 26, from 5:00 – 6:00PM
Where: The northwest corner of the intersection of Market and Montgomery Streets
What: We’ll walk the crosswalks with “Market Street for the People” signs and show Mayor Lurie that the way forward for San Francisco’s downtown is more foot traffic, not vehicle traffic.
Can’t make it? Email Mayor Lurie now
With the removal of private vehicles on Market Street, Muni travel times improved by up to 14% and traffic collisions went down by 40%.
We can’t go back to how things were before.
Let’s demand that Mayor Lurie reverse this decision and keep Market car-free tomorrow! This is about who our city’s “main street” is for: people.
