Welcome to Sutro Circuit — your signal-boost for all things transit, infrastructure, and urban life in San Francisco.

This is where we zoom in on the intersections of design, policy, mobility, and city culture — one block, bike lane, and Muni stop at a time.

I’m Matt, and no, I am not a unicorn, but I have called SF home for over 15 years. I’m a lifelong urban planning nerd and transit enthusiast. I created Sutro Circuit to explore how SF works.

Whether you’re an advocate, a planner, a pedestrian, or just stuck on Muni wondering “WHY!?” — you’re in the right place.
