City Council — October 28, 2026
The Grand Boulevard Phase III street improvements were scheduled to be formally accepted as complete, wrapping up a roughly $4.75 million construction project on a key city corridor.
City Council — July 8, 2026
The council picked a design with a dedicated bus lane and shared bike/pedestrian path for El Camino Real and sent it to Caltrans. It's a years-long process — construction likely early 2030s — with an estimated $175–225 million price tag for South City's segment, half potentially covered by county transportation funds.
Commission on Equity and Public Safety — May 18, 2026
El Camino Real is the most dangerous street in the Bay Area for deaths and serious injuries, and its main bus route carries the most low-income riders in the region. The city is choosing between wider sidewalks, a dedicated bus lane, or a bike lane — commissioners leaned toward the bike option — with a council decision expected July 8.
