Document Description
Note: Extended Review per lead.
Proposed by the City of Palo Alto and would build a year-round, grade-separated pedestrian and bicycle crossing of Highway 101 connecting south Palo Alto neighborhoods with the Baylands Nature Preserve and recreational and employment opportunities. The overcrossing is generally proposed as a 12-18' wide pedestrian and bicycle bridge which would include a minimum 10' wide travelway that would allow for a shared facility. Several alternative alignments will be proposed and considered. Potential environmental impacts could include changes to the visual landscape, biological impacts to surrounding wetlands and, temporary impacts during construction from noise, increased traffic and potential disruption to utilities.
