Document Description
The Project is a 2.2-mile bicycle and pedestrian system proposed to extend along the Regional Transportation Commission owned railroad corridor from the Beach Street/Pacific Avenue roundabout on the west in the City to the eastern side of 17th Avenue on the east in the unincorporated community of Live Oak. Segment 8 (0.6 mile) is composed of improvements to an existing Class IV on-street bicycle system and pedestrian sidewalk. Segment 9 (1.6 miles) is composed of a new multi-use bicycle and pedestrian trail in the rail corridor. For Segment 9, the EIR evaluates the Proposed Project: Trail Next to Rail Line (Ultimate Trail Configuration) and an Optional First Phase: Trail on the Rail Line (Interim Trail) whereby the railroad tracks would be removed and the trail would be located on the rail bed, at an equal level of detail.
