San Francisco's Upper Great Highway: Results of Proposition G

San Francisco residents have voted to keep the city closed to private vehicles for the second time in two years, opting to maintain its newest Coastal park, the Sunset Dunes. The San Francisco Chronicle called the measure. As of 11 p.m., residents have voted no on Prop G, with 109,160 (62.8%) voting in opposition and 64,656 (37.2%) voting yes. What is Prop G? At the center of Prop G is a simple question: whether voters want to reconsider the city's decision to renovate a two-mile stretch of the Upper Great Highway into the coastal park, Sunset Dunes. During the pandemic, the city temporarily closed the Upper Great Highway to weekend commuters, giving residents an outdoor area for social distancing and recreation. In 2024, voters considered Proposition K, which asked whether to permanently close the Upper Great Highway to motor vehicles seven days a week and use it as a public open recreation space. Ultimately, Prop K passed, earning 206,042 votes in support, or about 54% of the vote. The city of San Francisco then spent about $820,000 in public funds to create Sunset Dunes Park, removing old traffic signals and renovating the area for public use. As of June 2026,
