Caltrain Bike/Pedestrian Undercrossing Study and Conceptual Design
There is currently no way to cross the Caltrain tracks between Ravenswood Avenue and San Francisquito Creek.
This project will examine several sites within these limits for determining the best location for a bike/pedestrian undercrossing
and a connecting access easement from/to El Camino Real. A conceptual design will also be developed.
This project is included in the City's General Plan and has been approved as a City Council Project Priority for FY 2007-08.
