Menlo Park begins final construction on Middle Avenue bike lanes pilot
The final segment of the Middle Avenue buffered bike lanes pilot project has begun construction in Menlo Park. The construction spans from El Camino Real to University Drive.
The pilot includes buffered bike lanes and the removal of parking spots along Middle Avenue, as well as changes to the frontage of Nealon Park, located at 800 Middle Ave.
U.S. 101 northbound closure Oct. 13-16
All northbound lanes on U.S. Highway 101 are scheduled to be closed starting Friday night, Oct. 13, until 5 a.m. Monday, Oct. 16, between Brittan and Whipple avenues in Redwood City for construction on the Cordilleras Creek Bridge, Caltrans announced. This follows the closure of southbound lanes Sept. 29-Oct. 2.
According to Caltrans, the bridge is at the “end of its service life” and will be replaced with a single-span bridge. Residents should avoid the area during the 55-hour closure and use alternate routes. Signs will be set up to direct traffic away from the construction sites.
