Caltrain to Hold Meeting on Thursday about San Mateo Bridges Project

Caltrain will host a community meeting on Thursday to inform area residents about the progress and next steps of its San Mateo Bridges Replacement Project. The forum will include new details on the construction project contractor, the sequence and timeline of the undertaking and information about traffic and parking access.

Details about the meeting are available below:

Thursday, October 2

7 p.m. – 8:30 p.m.

Martin Luther King Community Center, Assembly Room

725 Monte Diablo Avenue, San Mateo

Caltrain is working with the city of San Mateo to replace the bridges at Tilton, Monte Diablo, Santa Inez and Poplar avenues. The bridges are over 100 years old, and must be replaced to meet current local, state and federal seismic safety standards.

The $38 million project will begin this fall and will last approximately two years. The project is being paid for by a combination of local, state and federal funds.

Residents can find out more information about the bridge replacement plan by visiting the project website here. They can also email smbridges@caltrain.com, or call the Construction Outreach Hotline at 650-508-7726.
