Arastradero Trail Improvement Project

The Arastradero Trail Improvement project consists of the rehabilitation of existing Town pathways according to Town specifications, the completion of a missing pathway link along Arastradero Road adjacent to 1-280, crosswalk improvements and the installation of new bike lanes on portions of Arastradero and Page Mill Roads.

On March 17, 2011, the City Council unanimously voted to continue the project to a date uncertain and directed staff to conduct further study on the existing and potential safety, traffic, and parking concerns in the project area.
