The 2.5 mile gap in the Bay Trail between the Stevens Creek Trail at Shoreline Park in Mountain View and the Baylands Park in Sunnyvale is expected to be filled. The official opening is planned for Earthday in April 2008.
The initial connection will be made by opening the locked gates to the outer levee in Mountain View and Sunnyvale, bypassing the NASA land at Moffett Field. The outer levee has a soft surface, making it a seasonal trail and is possibly inappropriate for many street bikes. Long term, the trail alignment will shift to a new flood control levee as part of the South Bay Salt Ponds restoration project, and should get a "stabilized surface" providing year-round use.
