Embarcadero Connectivity Plan

The Port of San Francisco, in partnership with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, is currently working on the San Francisco Waterfront Flood Study, a plan to defend a portion of our city's waterfront against sea level rise, stormwater flooding and earthquakes. 

As this critical work unfolds, the SFMTA will work with the community to develop the Embarcadero Connectivity Plan, a long-range transportation plan to keep the Embarcadero moving and thriving for generations to come. Our shared goal is to emerge on the other side of the Port's future work along the Embarcadero with an improved and resilient public transportation system that serves San Francisco residents, businesses and visitors alike.

Together, the Port and SFMTA projects play an important role in protecting vital transportation infrastructure that is used by hundreds of thousands of people each week. This includes the Ferry Building and terminals, the F Market & Wharves Streetcar, BART and Muni’s Embarcadero Station, as well as local streets, bikeways and promenades.

In partnership with the community, the SFMTA and its partners will develop a plan to:

• Address potential transportation impacts from the Port's future work along the Embarcadero
• Propose strategic improvements to the transportation network
• Envision a future waterfront transportation network that will benefit generations to come

Where: The plan area includes the stretch of waterfront along the Embarcadero from Aquatic Park to Mission Creek, and the bordering communities of North Beach, Chinatown, the Financial District, SoMa and South Beach.  

When: Planning efforts are in progress as shown in the timeline and will conclude in Fall 2027.
