The City is working to convert Slow Streets to Neighborhood Greenways, and we want to hear from you! Learn about Neighborhood Greenways and take the survey.
Neighborhood Greenways are bicycle- and pedestrian-priority streets designed to allow bicyclists and motorists to safely share the road on low-volume, low-speed, local streets. They are a key component of the Active Transportation Plan, forming 10 miles of the 2030 Low-Stress Bikeway Backbone Network.
In 2024-2025, the Slow Street segments of Pacific Ave, San Jose Ave/Morton St, and Versailles Ave will be converted to Neighborhood Greenways, and Slow Streets barricades will be removed. Note that the fourth Slow Street, Santa Clara Ave, is not slated to become a Greenway. Learn more at our new Neighborhood Greenways web page.
Please share your thoughts on treatments for Neighborhood Greenways and when the existing Slow Streets barricades should be removed:

The City will be installing two sets of speed cushions on Versailles Ave between San Jose Ave and Calhoun St as part of this year's pavement resurfacing project, after community engagement in June showed overall support. This will allow early implementation of a portion of the Versailles Neighborhood Greenway. Once the cushions are installed, the City will remove the Slow Streets barricades from this section of Versailles.
Speed cushions slow traffic speeds and improve safety for people walking, bicycling and driving. Over the next year, the City will develop a policy on when and where speed cushions and speed humps should be installed on Alameda streets. We'll solicit community input once we have a draft policy.
