The eye-sore 101 Billboards are still polluting our otherwise great bay-shore viewshed.

I wonder if someone in Caltrans management is getting a kickback from the Billboard Company ????

Has the Safety Corridor been in existence for twenty years? It seems like it.
The Alternative Transportation Path separate from the freeway was the first step.

Regardless of what you believe, its idiotic to build major roads so close to Sea Level…

long term they should be looking at moving it further inland, higher elevation…

Not building a bypass…

I’m happy to find your comment here! I was thinking the same thing.

On a related topic, the bay trail people are using the lowest estimate of sea-level rise, and their list of possible ways to address sea-level rise when it does occur is ridiculous.

We can always just pile 5 feet of dirt on it in 40 years and make it taller. Really not that hard
