Build two cross town tunnels to ELIMINATE a huge amount of traffic in our city. Traffic that simply wants to get from Marin to the peninsula and visa versa.
(1) 19th Avenue: Cut and Cover. No on or off ramps. When finished 19th Avenue can become another Octavia Blvd. Beautiful and tree lined.
(2) From the 80 to the GG Bridge (essentially the Hwy. 101 Tunnel).
If Boston can it, why can’t San Francisco? Put Nancy Pelosi to work for us.

This might be the most ridiculous idea I’ve seen on here yet.
1. Boston’s Bid Dig was a huge disaster that no politician will ever want to repeat much less use as inspiration for a new project - even if it was a good idea for Boston.
2. Spending all this money on car-based transportation is ABSOLUTELY ridiculous - the money you’re spending to build these tunnels could be used to build a Geary Subway, Van Ness Subway and extend the Central Subway to the wharf - all MUCH more valuable goals than your idea to encourage cars and pollution
3. All of that money, inconvenience, mess, and construction would be spend mostly for people who are just passing through the city on their way somewhere else. Most of whom would probably not even be city residents. WHY would anyone do advocate this? So people can bypass San Francisco altogether?
THIS IS THE MOST RIDICULOUS IDEA I HAVE EVER HEARD.
