this reference, shows the location of Redwood City's new Sequoia Station Shopping <br />Center in relation to the adjacent city streets and PCJPB's main tracks. Since the <br />shopping center was opened in 1994, there has been an increase in cross-track <br />pedestrian traffic between the shopping center and the commercial businesses and <br />civic center located easterly of Winslow Street. The pedestrian traffic consists of <br />businesspersons, shoppers and commuters using both CalTrain and SamTrans <br />busses. <br /> <br /> Currently, pedestrians walk across open tracks or use an unimproved station <br />platform crossing located about fifty (50) feet to the north of the shopping center <br />entrance. The applicant proposes to construct an improved pedestrian crossing closer <br />to the shopping center entrance using a rubberized crossing material and creating a <br />pathway using concrete and asphalt which conforms to the regulations of the <br />Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). <br /> <br /> Also proposed are two CPUC Standard #10 automatic warning signals which will <br />be placed as shown in Exhibit "B", attached hereto, and incorporated herein by this <br />reference. Guide fences will be placed 10 feet from centerline of the nearest main <br />track to direct pedestrians to the proposed crossing. <br /> <br /> The proposed crossing is specially located to conform to future plans <br />which affect the track structure at Redwood City, as follows: <br /> <br /> a) The Jefferson Avenue Grade Separation - The Jefferson Avenue <br />Underpass project, located approximately 650 feet to the south of the proposed at- <br />grade pedestrian crossing, will be under construction starting in the fall of 1995. The <br />existing top of rail elevation of both main tracks will remain unchanged on the future <br /> <br /> <br />
