Transportation Authority of Marin : Hwy 101 Greenbrae Twin Cities
The Transportation Authority of Marin has actively engaged project stakeholders to collectively develop a series of multi-modal improvements that increase the operational efficiency and safety of the Highway 101 Greenbrae/ Twin Cities Corridor for all users, including motorist, bicyclists, pedestrians and transit riders. Funding is provided from the Regional Measure 2 Program, a $1.00 increase in bridge tolls on bay area bridges approved by voters in 2004. Recent Actions - Updated October 4, 2013
At the September 26, 2013, the TAM Board provided a recommendation to consider a set of alternative projects to be pursued further. This recommendation will be forwarded to the Metropolitan Transportation Commission for a future action as the intended use of Regional Measure 2 funds in the Richmond San Rafael Bridge Corridor.

On March 17, 2011 the Caltrans District Director approved the Project Study Report (PSR). The PSR is a document that defines the project scope, cost and schedule which is then used as the basis for developing the engineering design and environmental document. By reaching this significant milestone TAM, Caltrans and our surrounding stakeholders can now focus on developing and refining the proposed options that will ultimately improve the operations and safety of the roadway network, improve access and use of public transit and improve a network of pedestrian and bicycle facilities in the Greenbrae Corridor. Read the Project Study Report. This report contains a number of lengthy attachments which are available for review at the TAM office. Contact the staff member listed below to schedule an appointment to review the attachments Public Open House and Scoping Meeting (September 2009)The Transportation Authority of Marin, in cooperation with the Department of Transportation hosted an informational open house and scoping meeting on Tuesday September 29, 2009 to provide a project update on our recent progress and to announce the initiation of the environmental phase. The event was well attended by over 120 interested stakeholders. A series of stations were set up with display exhibit boards that presented and described the project development process. TAM continues to work with the community to develop a suite of integrated multi-modal transportation improvements to improve mobility for all users within the corridor. The improvement options under consideration were on display for review and discussion.
Report from the TAM Board Meeting November 19, 2009The TAM Board acknowledged recent comments received from the public, the Town of Corte Madera, and the City of Larkspur expressing concerns regarding the final phase of the proposed southbound improvement alternative. The Chair stated his appreciation for all affected parties to listen, participate and develop the best alternatives for all users of the corridor. The Board recognized areas of community consensus and the recent progress made to develop the multi-modal improvement alternatives. The Board also recognized areas of disagreement and recommended the limits of the project be modified to allow remaining improvements to be studied further. This direction effectively removes the proposed final phase of the southbound improvement option from further development and study. Favorable community consensus was expressed on the northbound improvement option (Option “E”) for further study. TAM and our partners will continue to work closely with Caltrans to advance the improvement options still under consideration as part of the environmental analysis.
