New San Francisco Bay Trail Segment
17
A new 1/2-mile segment of the San Francisco Bay Trail is under construction in Pinole, including a 1,100-foot gradually sloping bridge over the Union Pacific Railroad tracks. The project is being constructed by the East Bay Regional Park District and closes one of four remaining gaps in the Bay Trail along San Pablo Bay - with two of the other three in the design and permitting stage. Once complete, the project will have huge benefits for West Contra Costa County residents with expanded recreation opportunities and transportation options. Funding for the project comes from many sources, including Measure WW which was passed by Park District voters in 2008 to expand East Bay parks, trails, and open space. The District was able to use Measure WW funds to attract significant external resources for the project. Over 70% of the funding for the project came from external federal, state and regional sources – saving local taxpayers millions. The project is expected to be complete in June. The bridge was designed to accommodate walkers, hikers, cyclists, and people with disabilities.
