About the Bay Trail
The San Francisco Bay Trail is an interconnected system of on- and off-street trails circumnavigating San Francisco and San Pablo Bays. The ultimate vision for the Bay Trail is a continuous, 500-mile trail around San Francisco and San Pablo Bays serving 47 cities in all nine Bay Area counties. As of 2024, 352 miles (70%) of the 500-mile vision have been constructed. The Bay Trail welcomes a variety of users including people who walk, bike, and roll. It is intended to be used for many purposes including recreation, commuting to work and school, running errands, accessing transit, and visiting friends and family.

About the Bay Trail Gap Closure Implementation Plan
The Bay Trail Gap Closure Implementation Plan (BTGCIP) sets priorities for future work to complete the vision of the San Francisco Bay Trail—an interconnected system of on- and off-street trails circumnavigating San Francisco and San Pablo Bays. Implementation of the trail began in the early 1990s and continues today. The purpose of the BTGCIP is to identify and evaluate segments of the Bay Trail and Connector Trails that are currently missing (i.e., trail gaps) in order to prioritize their design and construction as the full build-out of the Bay Trail is implemented. For more details about the Bay Trail Gap Closure Implementation Plan, scoring methodology, and results, please visit the Bay Trail Gap Closure Implementation plan website (https://mtc.ca.gov/operations/regional-trails-parks/san-francisco-bay-trail/bay-trail-gap-closure-implementation-plan) and interactive map (https://experience.arcgis.com/experience/817c5f3b503848deb44e83d337285fd6/#data_s=id%3AdataSource_2-18e39aa3ee3-layer-17%3A86).

History

Senate Bill 100, authored by then-state Senator Bill Lockyer and passed into law in 1987, directed the Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG) to develop a plan for this regional trail system including a specific alignment for the Bay Trail.

The Metropolitan Transportation Commission works with ABAG to implement the Bay Trail Plan, adopted by ABAG in July 1989. It includes a proposed alignment; a set of policies to guide the future selection, design, and construction of routes; and strategies for implementation and financing. Since its inception, the Bay Trail Plan has enjoyed widespread support in the region.
