Dear Council and staff, Attached is an e-mail with the above title I sent to the Council back in 2015. I can no longer find it on the Menlo Park site so its probably long been deleted. I suspect my copy re-appeared from cache on my machine that it was originally sent from. I think this deserves serious consideration. Not needing to construct a Shoofly Track to build the Ravenswood underpass is a big deal. In addition current discussions point to future needs for 3 or even 4 tracks through Menlo Park, so realize the "bridges" described in the attachment will currently only hold 2 tracks in the same alignments as they now exist, but the bridge structure could be constructed wide enough to hold 3 or 4 tracks in the future. Again needing NO Shoofly for the follow-on construction over Ravenswood. Sincerely, Steve Van Pelt, Menlo Park (image/jpeg attachment: 2018mayNoShooflyGradeSep.jpg )
