Redwood City Working Group moves ahead
SVBC members and staff, as well as members of the community at large, held their first meeting as the Redwood City Working Group. SVBC has formed a working group to provide input on bicycle-related projects to Redwood City staff. The workgroup is being formed primarily due to financial difficulties in Redwood City which have delayed institution of their Complete Streets Commission, which would normally provide input to City staff on bicycle and pedestrian issues. Thus, this workgroup will serve until a suitable commission is able to fulfill this function for the City.
The group's first meeting was held at the Redwood Shores Branch Library to formulate bike project priorities. A list of issues projects has been documented (see Google Map below). Main project items include Bair Island Bay Trail Improvement, East Bayshore Rd., Skyway/Shoreway Bike Route Improvement, and Veterans Blvd. bike lanes.
