Caltrain Finishes Creek Stabilization Work 3 Weeks Early
The $14 million project aims to protect two bridges and a historic redwood tree from erosion ahead of winter storms. Caltrain has completed a $14 million project in the creek, San Francisquito Creek Railroad Bridge and the Alma Street pedestrian and bicycle bridge, ahead of a deadline set by environmental regulators. The project was completed after severe winter storms in 2023 that threatened the ground supporting both bridges. The work includes reinforcing the creek banks with boulders and vegetation, replacing a Menlo Park storm drain outfall with a backflow prevention device and restoring habitat through native plantings. Although the major work is complete, landscaping and irrigation installation are still ongoing.
