After 17 years of partnership, the San Francisco Department of Public Health has proposed the complete defunding of Sunday Streets beginning in 2026, cuts which would spell the end of a legacy San Francisco tradition

Sunday Streets is San Francisco’s open streets program with an annual season of events that reclaim streets for people: healthy active living, thriving local businesses, artistic and cultural traditions, and more. Since 2008, the program has reached equity priority communities in Tenderloin, Mission, Bayview, Western Addition, South of Market, and Excelsior that have limited access to open space and neighborhood events.
