Colleen. It turns out dogs are allowed by Caltrans on the Benicia Bridge. Look at the sign Caltrans is going to install (if not already installed)

Turns out Caltrans is allowing dogs on the bridge. See the photo of the sign for it.

Last but not least, when you hire someone to write your blind date uncensored articles/ads, make sure you are always getting original quality content.

Some people regularly walk their dogs on the path. If no one complains and there are no incidents, I do not think they will post a sign or enforce it.

Thanks for checking on that for me. I tried to read everything posted about the bridge opening but could not find anything about walking dogs. It is too bad but I understand. It is hard to have both bicycles and dogs on the same narrow path. Thanks again

Dogs are not allowed on the Benicia Bridge pedestrian/bike path.

I believe so. I’ll check with Caltrans and if their response differs I’ll post it here. Leashes and cleaning up after your pets are necessary, especially on that path.

Can you walk your dog on the new pedestrian path that crosses the bridge?

Congratulations on your return to the bicycle commute. Please keep us posted on how the commute goes, we’d love to share your story on the 511CC website. See you on the bridge!

It is good to see that the plants overgrowing the bike path were pruned. I contacted City of Martinez Public Works Division about it.

I have biked across the Benicia Bridge a few times already to see how it was and posted my comments on BikeForums.net.

Tomorrow Saturday August 29 is the Official Grand Opening.

This will be my first day of bicycle commuting since 1986.
