Walnut Creek Transportation Commission: November 20, 2025

The City of Walnut Creek Transportation Commission held a regular meeting on November 20, 2025, focusing primarily on transportation infrastructure projects and planning. Key procurement-related discussions included the Walnut Creek BART Station Shared Mobility Hub project, which has secured a $3.4 million grant from the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) and $700,000 in local match funds from Regional Measure 3 for environmental clearance, design, and construction management. The commission reviewed concept designs and solicited input on prioritizing improvements due to limited funding. Another major agenda item was the Downtown Curbside Management Plan, which aims to improve parking, wayfinding, and safety, with recommendations to be forwarded to the City Council for adoption. The commission voted to recommend the plan's adoption. Lastly, the Oakland Boulevard Multimodal Improvements Project was presented, with a total budget of $9.6 million including a $400,000 local match, funded primarily through state transportation funds. The project is in early design stages, focusing on pedestrian, bicycle, and drainage infrastructure improvements. Commissioners discussed project scope, funding, and coordination with regional agencies. Public comments and commissioner feedback emphasized safety, connectivity, and the importance of integrating these projects with broader regional transportation goals.
