At the May 2, 2024 BPAC Infrastructure Committee meeting, Acacia Dupierre, Senior Transportation Planner of OakDOT’s Major Projects Division, will present on the Embarcadero West Rail Safety and Access Improvements project. The project will significantly increase multi-modal safety and accessibility along the Embarcadero West corridor and surrounding neighborhoods while reducing delays for freight and passenger rail.
The project will focus on safety and rail reliability measures, including the reconstruction of all intersection railroad crossings and new fencing along the railroad tracks to separate trains from other road users, streetscape improvements that will create a more welcoming, walkable corridor, and a multi-use trail on the waterfront side of the street. This project also includes redevelopment of the overweight vehicle corridor between Middle Harbor Road to Market Street. At the BPAC Infrastructure meeting, project staff will provide a brief overview of the project’s history and goals.
Staff are applying for a Consolidated Rail Infrastructure and Safety Improvements (CRISI) grant. They are requesting a letter of support from the BPAC to include in their funding application.
