A unique opportunity was created when BART expanded down the Peninsula to create a linear park on the swath of unimproved land on top of the tube. Eventually planned to run from Colma to Millbrae, South San Francisco's portion will be three miles long, running through the center of town from the South San Francisco to the San Bruno BART Stations. The Class I bicycle and pedestrian trail is a 10" wide asphalt pathway with 2' decomposed granite shoulders, irrigated for low maintenance landscaping, with safety lighting, signalized intersections where the trail crosses Spruce and Chestnut Avenues, and in-ground flashing lights at Orange Avenue.

The new park is called Centennial Way to commemorate the City's 100th birthday in 2008.  Estimated at a total cost upwards of $6 million, grant funding and developer fees have been secured to make phased construction possible. Centennial Way was one of three Statewide trail award winners from the Trails and Greenways Conference.

Enter the trail at the following locations, which can be easily identified by the placement of signage and kiosks with maps of the trail:

• North of San Bruno BART Station Parking structureSpruce Avenue just west of Huntington
• Orange Avenue at Memorial Drive
• Chestnut at Antoinette Lane
• End of Antoinette Lane (cul-de-sac)
• Mission Road at BART Bridge
• BART Drive across from El Camino High School
• McLellan Drive at Mission Road
