The closure of the Great Highway has led to the creation of a new bike play area benefiting families and young bikers at Ocean Beach Park. Lucas Lux from Friends of Ocean Beach Park noted the positive reception of this space. However, traffic issues surfaced, as reported by the SF Standard, with claims that neighboring streets experienced increased congestion. Critics pointed out that the article relied on limited traffic data from a single day immediately after the closure, prompting ongoing data collection for a more comprehensive traffic assessment this Spring.
"Kids of all ages are loving the new bike play area at Sloat. It's been getting rave reviews from brand new bikers to more experienced ones, and it's bringing families together to enjoy our amazing new park."
"That one day of analysis they use is from Tuesday, March 18-the Tuesday immediately following the closure of the Great Highway."
"We're collecting data from a larger sample window that will account for when traffic settles over the course of this Spring for a public report to be released this Summer."
