Introduction
The Brotherhood Way Safety and Circulation Plan will develop near- and long-term alternatives to improve safety, circulation, and connectivity for people driving, walking, and rolling through the Brotherhood Way and Alemany Boulevard corridors as well as on surrounding streets.
ConnectSF is San Francisco’s long-range transportation planning effort. As part of ConnectSF, the 2022 Streets and Freeways Strategy (PDF) identified the Brotherhood Way and Alemany Boulevard area for future planning to address safety on high-speed, high-capacity streets and improve neighborhood connections. The Streets and Freeways Strategy includes a high-level concept for the area to inspire future planning efforts.
The Brotherhood Way Safety and Circulation Plan is the next step in the process of creating safer streets in the area. The study began with an analysis of existing conditions and a round of community outreach to identify transportation needs and confirm study goals. Potential solutions are currently being developed to address existing transportation needs challenges. These potential solutions include near- and long-term improvements.
Community engagement is a key element of each study phase, and a Community Working Group has been formed to provide input at key study junctures.

This study emerged as one recommendation from the ConnectSF Streets and Freeways Strategy, which is the city’s multi-agency long-term planning effort to build an effective, equitable, and sustainable transportation system.
This study is hoping to advance three key ConnectSF recommendations
- Prioritize safety
- Reconnect communities that are divided by freeways and large roads
- Build a complete network for walking and biking
The work will also advance recommendations from previous plans, including the Vision Zero Action Plan, BART Station Access Studies, and San Francisco’s 2009 bike plan.
