Golden Gate Park Pedestrian Improvement Study

The Pedestrian Improvements Study is part of the overall Transportation Improvement Plan (TIP) called for by the Concourse Authority under Section 8 of Proposition J, the 1998 voter-passed “Golden Gate Park Revitalization Act of 1998”.

The Golden Gate Park Pedestrian Improvements Study provides a framework for pedestrian access and circulation improvements in the Park for the next several years. The Study outlines planning criteria with goals and objectives for pedestrian improvements consistent with the adopted Golden Gate Park Master Plan (July 9, 1998). Based on the planning criteria, input from Recreation and Park Department staff, Department of Parking and Traffic (DPT) site observations, and identified safety issues, the Study suggests specific projects to be considered for implementation.

Following public review and input, a Final Pedestrian Improvements Implementation Plan was approved by the Concourse Authority and Recreation and Park Commission. The Implementation Plan focuses on high priority, short-range and medium-range projects that are more promising for funding and implementation. The Concourse Authority will work with City Departments to prepare grant applications for funding the highest priority actions. Implementation of the improvement measures would use a combination of private and public money, using private funds to leverage public matching grants. An application for Regional Bicycle and Pedestrian Program (RBPP) funds to implement selected projects is being considered for approval by the San Francisco County Transportation Authority.
