In this brief YouTube update, Austin Klar reports that the California Coastal Commission unanimously approved a permit on December 12, 2024, allowing San Francisco to close the stretch of the Great Highway between Lincoln and Sloat to motor vehicles as early as spring 2025. The approval follows the passage of Proposition K, a controversial ballot measure that voters approved but could not be implemented without the Coastal Commission’s consent. Klar explains that the city can now begin planning to convert this segment into an extension of Ocean Beach Park, though the process will be lengthy. He invites viewers to follow him for future updates on the project.
