Green Connections will increase pedestrian and bicycle access to parks, open space and the waterfront, by re-envisioning City streets and paths as 'green connectors'that can be built over time.In the first year of the project, the focus will be to map a citywide network. The second year will build on this framework to design green connections in the following six neighborhoods: Bayview-Hunters Point, Chinatown, Potrero Hill, Tenderloin, Visitacion Valley and Western Addition.

Get involved! Visit the project web site below for project information and upcoming events. Also, follow Green Connections on Facebook and take our survey!!!

Green Connections is a collaborative effort of the San Francisco Planning Department, San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency, San Francisco Department of Public Health and the Mayor's Office of Housing.  The City Agencies have partnered with three community based organizations: San Francisco Parks Alliance, Walk San Francisco and Nature in the City.
