The purpose of this project is to:
• Enhance the transportation network within the project area to accommodate planned growth as anticipated under the adopted Envision San Jose 2040 General Plan.
• Improve pedestrian and bicycle facilities in the project area.
• Improve safety and traffic operations at the on- and off-ramps and mainline of US 101 within the project limits.
• Improve access to/from the Mineta San Jose International Airport
Project Features
Proposed improvements include:
-
Construct an overcrossing above US 101 that would connect Zanker Road on the north with 4th Street and Skyport Drive on the south.
- Replace existing ramps on northbound US 101 at Old Bayshore Highway and Brokaw Road with new ramps at Bering Drive.
- Incorporate bicycle and pedestrian facilities into the design.
Project Cost
