BACKGROUND:
In 2010, the City of Redwood City (“the City”) adopted a General Plan update that calls for the extension of Blomquist Street, which presently dead-ends into Maple Street on the east side of Highway 101. The road extension would eventually connect Blomquist Street from Maple Street to Bair Island Road through a vehicular bridge from the eastern edge of Redwood Creek adjacent to U.S. 101 (Figure 1).
