There is lot underway in Sausalito with renewed energy being directed to more fully develop the Greenway from the Sausalito Ferry Terminal to Gate 6 Road. The hope is to enhance the appearance and utility of the multi-use path from where it commences in Sausalito to make it more visible and accessible.
This portion of the Greenway will need to be elevated at some point in the future due to sea level rise. The One Tam team is working to start the dialogue about this effort along with enhancing Bothin Marsh and improving Coyote Creek as part of the planning for elevating the Greenway section known locally as the Mill Valley-Sausalito Pathway.
The North-South Greenway has a gap today, requiring the more intrepid riders to take Camino Alto, while others are forced to travel along the Horse Hill path to connect to Meadowsweet Drive. There is a real opportunity to make this route a more seamless part of the Greenway with better signage and features.
Transportation Authority of Marin (TAM)'s North-South Greenway Gap Closure Project will link the multi-use paths of the Greenway at the intersection of Old Redwood Highway and Wornum Drive and Central Marin Ferry Connector Bridge located by the Marin Country Mart. This project has two segments, the Northern (in progress) and Southern (planned). Details at the project website
The Greenway has a few gaps which need to be closed including the section between Puerto Suello Hill to North San Pedro Road and between McInnis Parkway to Smith Ranch Road. There Greenway will also extend further north as part of long-term plans to connect the entire County and the wider region,
Once the above projects are finished, then the Alto Tunnel will remain the only section of the Greenway not complete between the start at Sausalito Ferry Terminal all the way to McGinnis Park. While it's a big undertaking that will not happen overnight, if you'd like to help promote the effort to reopen Alto Tunnel, you can read more at the Open Alto Tunnel website:
