Two Downtown Santa Barbara Orgs Petition for Future of State Street

Two Santa Barbara organizations have launched petitions asking the community to weigh in on the future of State Street, with options to keep it car-free or open it to one-way traffic.

The Downtown Santa Barbara Improvement Association (DSBIA) supports a one-way traffic configuration, including retractable bollards for special events and separate spaces for pedestrians and cyclists.

Organizations ask the community whether to keep State Street car-free or open up the street to one-way traffic.
