Background
The El Cerrito Ohlone Greenway is a 2.7-mile multi-use trail and Greenway that traverses the City of El Cerrito, underneath the elevated BART tracks, from the south to north City limits. The City’s General Plan calls for improving the Ohlone Greenway by identifying several strategies, goals and policies related to the Greenway.

The Departments of Public Works and Recreation have taken the lead to work with the Parks and Recreation Commission to develop an Ohlone Greenway Master Plan to fulfill goals identified in the General Plan.

The Greenway will be partially damaged during BART Earthquake Safety Program activities beginning in 2009. The current planning effort will be coordinated with BART so that restoration of the trail is consistent with the goals of the City and residents. Other trail improvements identified in the planning process may be pursued concurrently or separately from the Earthquake Safety Program restoration.
