What will the finished pathway look like?
There will be two pathways, one on either side of the upper deck, designed to match the existing architecture of the west span. Having two pathways will allow maintenance activities to take place while simultaneously providing access to both cyclists and pedestrians. While maintenance work is not underway, cyclists would use one side while pedestrians would use the other. The northern pathway will feature stunning views of San Francisco’s waterfront and financial district, the Bay including Alcatraz, Angel, Yerba Buena and Treasure Islands. The pathways will be similar to those on the Golden Gate Bridge, but there will be larger belvederes at each of the two towers to allow cyclists to maintain a 20mph speed while also providing room for people to stop and enjoy the incredible views.
