The Cal Park Hill Tunnel runs for 1,106 feet through the hill to Larkspur.[1] It opened in 1884 and was a double-track train tunnel owned by Northwestern Pacific Railroad.[1] Train service stopped in the 1960s.[1] It is now owned by Sonoma–Marin Area Rail Transit (SMART).[1] After a $27 million project, jointly funded by SMART and Marin County, half of the tunnel reopened in December 10, 2010 as a bicycle and pedestrian path.[1] Sonoma–Marin Area Rail Transit plans to use the other half to extend its planned commuter rail line from downtown San Rafael to the Larkspur Ferry Terminal.[1] Originally estimated to cost $4 million,[2] the tunnel was rehabilitated for pedestrian access at a cost of $28 million in 2010; additionally the rail line is being extended from San Rafael Transit Center at a cost of $42 million.[3]
