Hayes Promenade may end soon, sign this petition to make it permanent!

At the start of the pandemic, our neighborhood came together to open Hayes Street for people on Friday evenings and weekends. This experiment opened up new space for people and businesses to congregate safely. It’s time to imagine something even better, and more permanent.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Cities worldwide are prioritizing people, pedestrian safety, and sustainability. Barcelona’s superblocks, Paris’ low-traffic zones, and Copenhagen’s vast bike network should inspire us all to demand more here in San Francisco. We have a golden opportunity to re-envision the role of our streets. Hayes Street is not just a thoroughfare but a vibrant stretch of community space. A pedestrianized Hayes Street would provide a beautiful avenue for sitting, eating, and walking. It would foster a community-centric atmosphere where people, especially families, the elderly, and children can play and bike freely.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The 400 block of Hayes Street is approximately 14,766 square feet, to put that into perspective, neighboring Proxy occupies 11,430 square feet. Imagine how much we could do with that one block of Hayes.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We urge every San Franciscan who envisions a future where streets are for every resident's enjoyment, to show your support.

SFMTA is currently weighing whether to end Hayes Promenade. Sign this petition to let our city leaders know we not only want Hayes Promenade preserved, but expanded to permanent pedestrianization.
