What work was completed around the Belmont Slough?

The new Egress bridge (near Rock Harbor Lane) and Baffin bridge were constructed to provide a permanent connection between Foster City and Belmont/Redwood Shores and Foster City and San Mateo for pedestrians and cyclists. Construction of the bridges has restored tidal action in the Belmont Slough, a condition of the project’s BCDC permit.  The restoration of tidal action should have no impact on either trail users or nearby homes, as the backfill and remediation efforts were intended to reduce the risk of flooding.
