At the Aug. 29 meeting, the City Council is set to approve the update to the preferred concept for the Middle Avenue Caltrain crossing design. The crossing will improve connectivity for neighborhoods on both sides of the Caltrain tracks to city amenities, schools, public transit and downtown Menlo Park. 

The City has revised the Middle Avenue Caltrain crossing design to address Caltrain comments, including:

  • Tunnel 3 feet deeper to allow construction without disrupting train service. 
  • Ramps relocated out of Caltrain's right of way, resulting in a 28 foot longer tunnel.
  • Ramps, stairs, and crosswalks reconfigured to align with new ramp locations.
  • Additional utility relocations required (sewer and water) due to new ramp location.
