I am so upset with the disingenuousness of Park/government officials. They claim they have offered us all kinds of solutions, but the only one I know of for sure is the 24-hour valet service.
For the second year in a row, banning cars from (the eastern part of) JFK Drive made it impossible for many people with mobility disabilities, seniors, those who live far from Golden Gate Park and others to see the Winter Lights shows.
Today we are reaping what was sown when Gavin Newsom became mayor. Newsom appointed Mark Buell to run the Rec. and Park Commission and Phil Ginsburg to head the RPD.
The past decade or so has been dismal for anyone who values Golden Gate Park as a sanctuary filled with natural wonders.
I am impressed by the December commentary by the Honorable Quintin L., Kobb where he begins with the quote “Upon the education of the people of this country the fate of this country depends.”
Congrats for recognizing Chris Duderstadt’s contribution to our neighborhood.
San Francisco has taken a few baby steps, and that’s good. This race is an ultramarathon; we need to be sprinting flat out right now.
with half a brain realizes that the status of this roadway, as well as that of JFK Drive, should be up to the voters of San Francisco, who reside here and pay taxes here and try to get around here as best they can.
As Outer Sunset/Parkside residents for 20+ years, we feel it is incumbent upon us to share our concerns about the current Upper Great Highway (UGH) policies and closures.
I still think the car closure is a good idea for a city that is very car friendly based on the amount of infrastructure intended for car traffic vs. bicycle or pedestrian traffic.
New reports say the Sierras will be snow-free in 25 years, and that the Antarctic Ice Sheet has passed the tipping point.
It is unfathomable that the needs of the elderly and the disabled and those multi-generational families from outlying neighborhoods are being dismissed.
The Great Highway has always been a safe, shared space among drivers, bicyclists, pedestrians and others.
I’ve done a little research into the many violations of vehicle codes and the SF Transportation Code by the Thursday evening “Slow Ride” participants.
