Caltrain readies for two bridge replacement projects

摘要

Caltrain is preparing to begin projects to replace two century-old bridges that no longer meet current seismic safety standards. The Tilton Avenue Bridge in San Mateo, Calif., will be replaced on the weekend of Nov. 7. The bridge is one of four bridges that will be replaced as part of the San Mateo Bridges Replacement Project. Caltrain says the project will ensure that the aging bridges are safe and equipped to meet the region's future transportation needs, including new electrified rail service and improved traffic flow on city streets.
