There is river that goes through there. The tracks could go over a road at 15th St. I know it is not OTN, but it is the best access point to the Casdan (sp?) property which is the real reason for more access to that side of the tracks.

The at-grade option is really the only option. It is also the most dangerous hence the Commission's hesitance in giving the ok.

Similar to State Street in Santa Barbara (the street goes under the 101 but does't go under the tracks). A big bridge in Old Town Newhall wouldn't look "Old Town".

You are correct in assuming the grade will need to start close to the Main/Lyons intersection. The how remains to be seen. There are a few examples in Burbank that'll give an idea of process. The question still exists as to whether or not the Commission will allow the at grade crossing especially given the fact that it is so close to another. cash, the EIR process still needs to be completed for the crossing.

Unless there is an alignment change, to maintain an acceptable grade, the beginning of the approach ramp up to the bridge would almost have to begin in front of the Billy's store. It seems bridge will take up lots of space. Just picture moving something like the bridge at Wiley and the railroad to Lyons and the railroad. Seems the city needs to answer this question before it even builds the Library. Maybe navigator knows the answer.
