We host free activities at the park every week! And starting this year, we’re excited to announce two new ones: Traditional Chinese Dance and Zumba classes sunsetdunes.org/events/

Bringing car traffic to one of our most popular parks isn’t a compromise; it’s a closure. We’re not done fighting for Sunset Dunes. Follow us to stay informed as this develops.

🚧 ICYMI, GREAT HIGHWAY HIGHS + LOWS: The closed roadway is expected back on the ballot in November, and no one has checked in recently on claims of traffic speeds and street safety.

Frustrating that we live in an era where politicians can just lie to create whatever compelling-sounding argument they want. Supervisor Wong claimed that creating Sunset Dunes doubled traffic injuries in the district. That sounds really bad, except it's also horse apples.

Recently, to justify his political stunt and waste SF voters’ time with a third ballot measure, Supervisor Alan Wong is willfully misrepresenting data. He’s been claiming that Sunset Dunes is causing “traffic injuries in District 4 to nearly double.” 🤦That’s patently false.

Happy Friday San Francisco. Enjoy your park.

Just in: Supervisor alanwongsf failed to get the required signatures from fellow Supervisors to place another ballot measure targeting Sunset Dunes before SF voters. It’s time to move forward and focus on improving our coastal park together. SF has made a decision, and the park is here to stay.

14 Jan

With this latest failure, the decision has been made at the ballot box, upheld in court, and rejected repeatedly by the public and elected officials. Sunset Dunes is open, popular, and functioning exactly as voters intended.

Rode my bike through the Panhandle, along JFK Promenade and through the park to Sunset Dunes at sunset. Gorgeous night. Skaters skating, a DJ spinning mellow sunset beats. So many people out in all the parks. A beautiful celebration of recent victories in the war on cars, SF front. 14 fun miles.

Last week, we hosted a forum with the Sunset Dunes community and Supervisor Alan Wong. Outer Sunset Neighbors poured their hearts out, telling him how much the park means to them. We’re disappointed that he’s choosing to ignore our perspectives entirely with his attempt to close the park.

He now has one day left to get three other Supervisors to sign onto his park closure ballot measure. We hope his colleagues honor the will of the voters and let him play out this stunt as a solo act. You can watch the whole event here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=28Qd...

Oh, I should’ve tagged @sunsetdunes.org here - what an amazing gift to everyone in the city this is! And one more image - my boy, top of a tentacle at sunset as behind him a skater flies up the ramp - what a spot!

Data, unlike D4 Supervisor Alan Wong, doesn't lie. "No Evidence the Upper Great Highway Closure Made Sunset Streets Less Safe"

While Supe. Wong won’t tell anyone how much ripping out one of SF’s most popular parks will cost, along with other details about his political stunt, he’s choosing to mislead the public rather than engage in thoughtful policymaking.

We hope his colleagues honor the will of the voters and let him play out this stunt as a solo act.

The reality is that traffic injuries in District 4 in 2022 and 2023—with the weekend-only pilot—were higher than 2024 and 2025. With the park, SF residents now finally have a safe place to walk, bike and play in the Sunset, and the data backs this up.

🚨Breaking News: an SF Superior Court just rejected the lawsuit attempting to overturn Prop K, dismissing all four claims.

This lawsuit attempted to overturn the will of the voters and close one of the city’s most popular parks. Its decision affirms the city’s authority to move forward in making Sunset Dunes a permanent coastal park for future generations.

@nickpegg.sfba.social.ap.brid.gy

Now that opponents have lost two lawsuits and two elections, we invite them to accept the will of San Franciscans and work with us to make the most of our coastal park.

As Outer Sunset residents, we know firsthand how unfounded the traffic nightmare claims are. Don’t believe us (or city data, or any maps app)? See for yourself.

To give you a break in the very bleak skyline, I made it out for a sunset bike ride for the first time since getting a stupid cold. It's one of the distinct December joys in San Francisco, especially now that we have Sunset Dunes Park. So peaceful and beautiful. Many people out enjoying.

🚨📸 Sunset Neighbors — we need your help! Our new District 4 Supervisor Alan Wong wants to hear from you about what Sunset Dunes means to you. While it’s become a beloved community space in the Sunset (on top of being one of SF’s most popular parks), opponents currently have his ear.

16 Dec 2025

We need your help reminding him how important of a space the park is, and why he shouldn’t work to remove it. The best way to do that is by emailing him at alan.wong@sfgov.org

Sunset Dunes is still incredibly popular! Yet some opponents want to keep arguing about it 🙄 Do you think SF should vote on it a third time?

Today, our new District 4 Supervisor, Alan Wong, was sworn in. As Sunset residents, we know what our neighborhood needs most after a recall, two ballot measures, and a Supervisor appointee resignation: a leader who can show us the way forward, not work to destroy Sunset Dunes.

View full thread

Already SF’s third-most popular city park, Sunset Dunes has been used by over one million people just this year to walk, roll, bike, lounge and enjoy the coast.

We’re hopeful that Supervisor Wong will do what’s right for our community and for our coastline: listen to the will of the 206,000 voters who already voted to open Sunset Dunes, and continue to move our neighborhood forward, not backward.

As opponents urge him to close the park, we’re hopeful that Supervisor Wong will instead make decisions based on facts, and what’s best for the future of the Sunset and San Francisco.
