Northern Segment Description
The Northern Segment of the North-South Greenway Gap Closure Project replaces the existing 4-foot wide sidewalk along the US 101 northbound off-ramp with a wider multi-use pathway, and improves pedestrian and bicycle access along a section of Old Redwood Highway to enhance safety and accessibility of the North-South Greenway. The north end of the project is located on the north side of Corte Madera Creek, at the touchdown of the Central Marin Ferry Connector Bridge. The south end of the project is located at the entrance to the Greenbrae Pedestrian Overcrossing on the east side of US 101.
Environmental analysis and final design for the Northern Segment were completed in 2020, and construction began in early 2021. The award-winning first phase of construction, completed in 2022, involved work within the Caltrans right-of-way, while the second phase involves work within the City of Larkspur. While TAM is the sponsoring agency for the project, Caltrans led the construction phase for their portion along US 101, and the City of Larkspur is leading the construction phase for the City’s portion along Old Redwood Highway. Interested stakeholders can follow project progress by visiting the Construction Photos page on this website, or the TAM website.
