Historic Trestle Reconstruction

Goal Background

Petaluma’s historic trestle is located along the southwest bank of the Turning Basin in downtown Petaluma.  While significant hurdles exist, the vision is to transform the structure which is currently in poor condition into a prized, iconic riverfront gathering place and active transportation hub.  Major milestones include environmental assessment, determining ownership/acquisition models, inviting the community to develop a vision for the site, design, securing funding for construction, and project implementation.  This will be a multi-year project.

The first two milestones, Reengage on Previous Studies/Plans/Designs and Commence Design of the Project to Make the Project Ready for Bids in FY24 or FY25, are anticipated to be completed by Quarter 1 of FY 2023.

Milestones

*Please note the City of Petaluma's fiscal year is from July 1 to June 30 of the following year.
