PROJECT OVERVIEW 

Highway 101 is the busiest corridor in San Mateo County and is essential for getting people and goods to where they need to go. The corridor includes many types of transportation on and off the highway that connect the community including travel by foot, car, bus, bicycle, train, and ferry. The San Mateo County Transportation Authority’s (SMCTA) vision for 101 is to be an interconnected corridor which serves the needs of all travelers in San Mateo County, no matter how they choose to travel.  

To meet this goal, the SMCTA has developed the 101 Corridor Connect North County Multimodal Strategy which identifies underfunded but necessary projects that improve and encourage the use of different types of transportation.

WHAT DOES “MULTIMODAL” MEAN? 

A mode of transportation is a term used to distinguish different ways of moving people or goods. Common modes of transportation include driving, walking, biking and taking transit.
