Oyster Point Shoreline Park Phase 2C

Project Overview

Built above a capped landfill, Oyster Point Shoreline Park has seen significant improvements over the past several years. Much of the area has been improved in partnership between the City of South San Francisco and private developers. This next phase of the project, known as the Oyster Point Shoreline Park Phase 2C, is located on the eastern half of the Oyster Point peninsula and owned by the City of South San Francisco and operated by the San Mateo County Harbor District. Through an agreement with the Former Redevelopment Agency, funds were made available to the City of South San Francisco to perform maintenance and repairs to the landscape, parking area and Bay Trail within the Phase 2C area.

In late 2021, the City engaged landscape architects RHAA and civil engineers Wilsey Ham to design landscape, roadway parking lot, and Bay Trail repairs focused on areas of 2C that were above the 100-year high tide level to address sea level rise.

Project Scope

The proposed repairs include asphalt overlay to the large parking lot, entry road and parking areas, new pedestrian pathway paving, new site lighting, replacement of the picnic area, new seating and site amenities, gateway, wayfinding and interpretive signage, a dog park, and new trees, shrubs and groundcover.
