Bike/Pedestrian Path under south end of Bridge Closed Intermittently Through mid-2008

The bicycle and pedestrian path under the south end of the Golden Gate Bridge (San Francisco side) that connects the Bay Ridge Coastal Trail with the east and west sidewalks of the Bridge and with a portion of Battery East Road will be closed INTERMITTENTLY, Monday-Friday between the hours of 7 am and 3:30 pm through 2007. The closure is to accommodate seismic retrofit work on the Golden Gate Bridge. The pathway will be OPEN to bicyclists AFTER 3:30 pm for access to the west sidewalk. When closed, detour signs will be posted to direct bicyclists and pedestrians to use a route through the parking areas and tunnel under the Toll Plaza and Highway 101 to connect to Battery East Road or Lincoln Boulevard. Bicyclists should walk their bikes through the tunnel under the Bridge when the path is closed.

 

Potential Detour on North Side of Bridge

The portion of Conzelman Road below the north side of the Golden Gate Bridge is open to bicycle and pedestrian traffic. However, this will be closed, in the event the Department of Homeland Security raises the security to "orange" or "red." If closed, use Alexander Avenue to access Fort Baker, Discovery Museum and Sausalito.
