Expressways V Ì Õi`ÊvÀ Ê«>}iÊÇ®
Other council members stressed the need to consider improvements for the entire stretch of Page Mill and Oregon Expressway, rather than just the highway interchange. According to Rodriguez, the county’s new expressway plan will do exactly that. In addition to exploring the specific segments, Expressway 2040 will also include a focused study on the interchange, which will evaluate significant, long-term improvements.
Palo Alto residents and city officials will have plenty of opportunities to opine on the county proposals. The proposed expressway improvements will be included in the county’s new General Plan, which will have to undergo a detailed environmental analysis. The county plans to release its “notice of preparation” for the plan next month and the Palo Alto council is scheduled to hold its first discussion on the projects in Expressway Plan 2040 on May 12.
