Access for cyclists and pedestrians across the Richmond-San Rafael bridge will be limited this fall.
The Berkeleyside reports the bike and pedestrian path across the westbound, upper deck section of the bridge will be open from Thursday afternoons through Sundays.
The paths had been open on a 24-hour basis when they were opened in 2019. But police and fire emergency teams argued the lanes hampered their response times to vehicle breakdowns.
Caltrans says it plans to use the bike-pedestrian path as a breakdown shoulder for vehicles, as well as use test the lane for carpools and buses.
