Paving for Point Lobos and the Great Highway to Lincoln is complete and the roadway is looking good. This smooth new street is a 20-30 year investment for San Francisco and Public Works is excited to announce its completion.

Striping the new road has been completed from 48th to Fulton and the remaining striping is going in now and will be complete soon.

Thank you to everyone for their patience and understanding during construction for the this important and historic corridor.

Every neighborhood in San Francisco is seeing the benefits of the $248 million Road Repaving and Street Safety Bond, with safer conditions for pedestrians and smoother streets for motorists and cyclists on hundreds of city blocks.

We are a little more than a year into the three-year bond program and there are hundreds of public works projects going on currently.
