Save Our Sonoma Roads is a citizens group whose purpose is to improve the condition of our county and city roads and streets. Good roads are vital to public safety, property values and our economic well-being.
But after years of neglect, the official County policy is to let 84 percent of county roads degrade to gravel. SOS Roads says this is unacceptable.
The deterioration of county roads and city streets is at a crisis level and is directly correlated to insufficient funding for road maintenance and preservation.

Our goal is to adequately fund the restoration of our county road and city streets.
SOS Roads will accomplish its mission by educating individuals, groups and businesses on how roads are funded and by advocating for appropriate allocation of public funds to roads.
