Mountain View accepted the League of American Bicyclists Bronze Level award/designation as a "Bicycle Friendly Community" at the Council meeting on Tuesday, February 24th. This was a great honor for the City as it adds to an extended track record of three such designations!

At the January 28th Mountain View Bicycle/Pedestrian Advisory Committee meeting, the BPAC received an update on the City's capital improvement projects.

This update provides the status as of January 1, 2009. All completion dates listed are the targeted dates which may change at any time for a variety of reasons.

The City of Mountain View is currently designing a capital improvement project to extend Permanente Creek Trail from its current terminus north of Highway 101 to the south side of Old Middlefield Way by constructing a pedestrian/bicycle bridge over Highway 101 and a tunnel under Old Middlefield Way.
