Project History:

In the summer and fall of 2000 the City of Menlo Park held a series of public meetings to discuss traffic and related issues on Santa Cruz Ave. As a result of those meetings the City Council authorized two projects, short-term and long-term improvements.

  • The short-term improvements were finalized in June 2002 with final evaluation scheduled for January 2003
  • Long-term improvements to address pedestrian, traffic and landscaping needs is currently being launched.

Long-Term Project Description:

This project will design and implement long-term improvements to Santa Cruz Avenue from University Avenue to Oakdell Avenue.

Potential improvements being considered:

  • Sidewalks
  • Curb extensions and median islands
  • Landscaping
  • Bike lanes
  • Traffic signals
  • Lighted crosswalks
  • Utilities undergrounding
  • On-street parking

Public feedback will be considered in the final design.

Current Status:
