Transportation & Access
Coastside communities are strung together along Highway 1, which stretches north and south between San Francisco and Santa Cruz. Highways 92 and 84 are the only east-west access to the Peninsula.
Most residents relay on their own means of transportation, however SamTrans does provide limited public transportation while a general aviation facility located in Moss Beach provides for those with small planes. The Chamber also has several members that provide transportation services.
Generally peak commute hours over Highway 92 east bound are 6:30-8:30am and 4-7pm west bound, Monday through Friday. Of course commute times may vary depending on weather and traffic conditions.
