Consultants recommend northeastbound configuration after Embarcadero Way pilot

Oct 15, 2026

A three‑phase pilot on a 700‑foot Embarcadero Way segment found strongest community support for the northeastbound one‑way configuration (phase 1) and recommended a longer‑term northeastbound installation with speed‑management measures; phases testing southwestbound and full closure showed higher diversion and wrong‑way driving.

Consultants presented a three‑phase pilot of Embarcadero Way on Oct. 14, 2026, reporting that community survey responses and traffic counts favored a northeastbound only one‑way configuration on the 700‑foot segment. The consultant said the phase‑1 pilot produced minimal diversion on nearby streets and that “70% [of respondents] were satisfied” with the northeastbound configuration.
