West Cliff Drive: The city council approved the vision, but we still have far to go to achieve real safety for pedestrians and cyclists

Stephen Svete and Amelia Conlen, board members of Bike Santa Cruz County, support making West Cliff Drive a one-way roadway while expanding right-of-way infrastructure for pedestrians and bikers. They were disappointed on April 9 when the Santa Cruz City Council did not move forward with city staff’s two-year pilot grant application recommendation, but are heartened that the overall vision was approved. Their nonprofit organization will continue to advocate for less vehicle traffic along the iconic coastal corridor.
