Speak out to save SURF! The Coastal Commission must approve a permit next month or SURF! can't be built.
Please join us in posting a short video on social media telling Commissioners to support equal access to the coast!

SURF! protects California’s beautiful coastline through significant greenhouse gas reductions and cleaner air! Less traffic + zero-emission buses = a healthier community + planet!
@TheCACoast: Let's fight climate change together! Yes on SURF!
SURF! BRT and Busway mean less traffic, faster commutes between Salinas and Monterey (as well as all the cities in between), fewer cars on the road, cleaner air, and better access to the coast.
But this will happen ONLY IF @TheCACoast votes YES on SURF! next month!
You can use our social media kit, which includes graphics and posts that can be adapted to your voice. Please include this material in your personal posts and organization's social media content calendars regularly in the leadup to the vote next month socialpresskit.com/surf
Years of hard work together to connect our communities, create opportunity, and promote environmental sustainability come down to this moment and we hope you will lend your voice in support at this critical time!
We invite you to be part of a social media push leading up to the Coastal Commission vote on the SURF! Busway and Bus Rapid Transit Project, recently rescheduled to occur during its September 11-13 meeting.

Dedicated ROW helps ensure the BRT line provides frequent, speedy, and reliable service -- essential qualities to get people out of their cars and onto public transit, which as we know helps reduce climate pollution. All of this is good, right? Not for the Coastal Commission. 4/

The BRT plan would build a busway along the branch line right-of-way paralleling Highway 1 to connect Marina, Sand City, and Seaside (where many who work in Monterey live) and the Monterey Peninsula itself, which is unaffordable. (Ask me why I no longer live there.) 3/
As part of the new SURF! Busway & Rapid Transit transportation project, @MST_BUS will restore 60 acres of coastal dunes and habitat so native plants can thrive!
@TheCACoast: Help us unlock the natural beauty of our coast. YES on SURF!
In a must-read opinion piece, @SenJohnLaird & @AsmDawnAddis urge @TheCACoast to approve the SURF! Busway & Bus Rapid Transit Project to provide our community with equal access to the coast.
montereyherald.com/2024/07/1…
The new SURF! Busway & Bus Rapid Transit project will provide equal access to the coast and recreation for ALL local communities in Monterey County ONLY IF @TheCACoast votes YES on SURF! next month!
