The City of Berkeley waited many years for a safe passage for bicycles, wheelchairs, and pedestrians to cross Interstate 80 from Berkeley's Aquatic Park on the East side of Interstate 80 to the shores of the San Francisco Bay on the West side.

This structure was needed to replace the narrow stairways, sidewalks and dangerous passage that existed for years at University Avenue in Berkeley.

The new Pedestrian Overcrossing is a showpiece of engineering design. In crossing this structure, one experiences breathtaking views of San Francisco, the Bay Bridge, and, most important to the City of Berkeley, the Golden Gate Bridge.
