Walnut Creek Council to examine Pleasant Hill BART Shortcut Path Project
July 3, 2008
The Walnut Creek City Council will consider the Pleasant Hill BART Shortcut Path proposal on July 15 at 7:00 p.m. atCouncil Chambers, located at 1666 Main Street. The City staff report will be available online the Friday before (July 11).
Contra Costa County is embarking on a design process to make the Pleasant Hill BART station area more pedestrian and bicycle friendly. There are two strategies to this project:
1-Make the station area more accessible by bike and foot by building a path making the station directly accessible from the area to the northeast of the station. The general project area can be viewed here.
2-Develop a signage and wayfinding system that will guide pedestrians and cyclists in and around the station area.
Contra Costa County, with a grant from the Metropolitan Transportation Commission’s Transportation for Livable Communities program has hired a consultant (M.I.G.) to guide this process. More information can be found by calling Steven Goetz at 925-335-1240 or by visiting the County Planning website.
