Title

Aquatic Park Promenade Safety and Accessibility Improvements Project

Description

The Aquatic Park Promenade Safety and Accessibility Improvements Environmental Assessment (EA) describes several alternatives including the Selected Alternative to enhance recreational use, public safety and accessibility of the Aquatic Park Promenade located in the San Francisco Maritime National Historical Park in San Francisco. The Promenade is the wide sidewalk at the northern edge of the Aquatic Park National Historic Landmark District, running from Jefferson Street on the east toward Van Ness Avenue on the west. The State Belt Railroad tracks run along the southern edge of the Promenade sidewalk and then along an upper asphalt path to cross Van Ness Avenue. Over the years, subsidence and the pressure of vehicle traffic has led to cracking of the Promenade and pavement loss and deteriorated pavement around the historic State Belt Railroad tracks. The Selected Alternative will remove the State Belt Railroad Tracks, replace pavement with concrete and connect the Promenade to Van Ness Avenue. It will retain separate pedestrian and bicycle paths.
