  1. It’s unfortunate that the state was unable to fund the East Side Parallel Trail from Higgins to Moonridge. This trail would be an integral piece of pedestrian/bike access for those who commute from the South end of town into work and would represent an important step in moving towards access and transportation equity on the Coastside. Luckily, it sounds as if the project will get a second chance locally, when the SMCTA will take a look at it during their meeting on 12/1. Please show your support for this important project by emailing Supervisor Don Horsely – [email protected] – before the 12/1 meeting – tell him you support SMCTA grant funding for the East Side Parallel Trail: Higgins to Moonridge segment.

    1. Update: the South portion of the trail (Higgins to Moonridge) would actually be funded by a different agency (MTC) so the 12/1 meeting will be looking at funding for the East Side Trail North to Rocket Farms only. More soon…
