It has been 25 years since voters approved funding to replace the outdated inter-
change where Willow Road meets U.S. 101 in Menlo Park, but on May 7, Menlo Park City Council members tried to finally nudge the project closer to real-ity by giving a nod to one of the design options suggested by the multi-agency group currently working on the interchange. The plan favored by the City Council includes bike lanes and pedestrian walk-ways on the over-pass, separated from vehicle traf-fic by a concrete barrier, as well as two-lane on- and off-ramps designed to cut back on free-way and Willow Road backups. Additional bike lanes would be next to vehicle lanes on the 162-foot-wide overpass structure. Instead of the cloverleaf design of the current inter-change, traffic would stop at signal lights before entering Willow Road. Council member Ray Mueller said Menlo Park might even be able to use the prospect of the new interchange, which should ease traffic problems for motor-ists heading to Palo Alto and East Palo Alto, as a bargaining chip in trying to get Palo Alto to resolve a long-standing traf-fic issue. “I think it’s time that we actually start having serious discussions with Palo Alto about opening up Alma to Sand Hill,” he said. Funding to replace the inter-change, built in 1955, was approved by county voters in 1988 as part of the Measure A transportation fund sales tax spending plan, and a study on the project was completed the next year, but it was never given final approval. The interchange was again included in the spend-ing plan when Measure A was renewed in 2004. The interchange is in Menlo
Park, but is under the jurisdic-tion of Caltrans, which worked with the city as well as East Palo Alto and C-CAG — the City-County Association of Govern-ments in San Mateo County — on the project. C-CAG will provide much of the funding along with the Measure A trans-portation funds. East Palo Alto’s City Council will consider the project designs later this month, according to Menlo Park Public Works Director Chip Taylor. Even if all goes well, the
project won’t be completed until 2018, according to projections. That includes a two-year con-struction pro-cess following environmental analysis and design work. The design chosen by the council was developed after
talking to the agencies involved as well as local neighbors and users of the roads. Consider-ations included how much near-by property would be affected, safety and ease of use, as well as traffic congestion. Menlo Park’s engineering ser-vices manager Fernando G. Bra-vo said a team of engineers not otherwise involved in the proj-ect also looked at alternatives in terms of cost, performance, construction time and risk, and favored the version supported by the City Council. The current interchange is “not pleasant, safe or convenient for anybody right now,” said Willows neighborhood resident and bicyclist Andrew Boone, who said he is “actually very pleased with” the proposed design, which does have bicy-clists and pedestrians crossing vehicle traffic at traffic signals. “I think it’s a good compro-mise,” he said. “The current cloverleaf is a transportation dinosaur from another era,” said Jim Bigelow, longtime chair of the Menlo Park Chamber of Commerce’s trans-portation committee. “I think
you have a solution before you.” Council member Kirsten Keith urged the city to move quickly to assure it can be first in line for
available C-CAG funding. “I think you really came up with a really great plan for Menlo Park,” she said.
Council members unani-mously approved accepting the recommended design and con-tinuing work on the project. A

This drawing shows the council-supported plan for a new interchange at Willow Road and U.S. 101 in Menlo Park. The plan includes bike lanes and pedestrian walkways on a 162-foot-wide overpass, separated from traffic lanes by a concrete barrier. There would be additional bike lanes alongside vehicle lanes in the overpass roadway, with two-lane on- and off-ramps and traffic lights where the ramps intersect with Willow Road.

“I believe that local newspaper advertising is essential to my real estate business.”
– Mary GillesThere is something tangible and personal about holding the paper over your morning coffee that cannot be replaced by surfi ng the net. The paper provides a much richer experience because it is one of the key elements that defi ne a community. Home buyers are buying the community as much as the house they are seeking.
The importance of print advertising was never more apparent until recently when a luxury property I was preparing for the market was advertised in the Weekly and the Almanac. Soon after the ad appeared, we sold the home to the buyer who saw the ad and called her agent asking to see the home. Just like that.
This is why I will continue to make advertising in the Weekly and the Almanac a key part of my marketing plan.
We will work to help your business grow! For Advertising information, please call
