Monterey Bay Sanctuary Scenic Trail (MBSST) Network Draft Master Plan

What is the MBSST Draft Master Plan?

The purpose of the Draft Master Plan is to establish the continuous alignment and set of design standards for the Monterey Bay Sanctuary Scenic Trail Network, including the Coastal Rail Trail spine, and associated spur trails. Planning for the Trail Network is done within the context of existing physical constraints of the railroad, potential rail service, coastal access requirements, highway, and public street rights-of-way. The Draft Master Plan identifies planning issues associated with the trail’s construction and presents possible solutions for its design, implementation, long term operation and maintenance.
