  1. So is 35 between Bunker Hill and Crystal Springs Rd opening back up? Or do motorists have to access Sawyer Camp Trail via Hayne Rd?

  2. Motorists should access Sawyer Camp Trail from the Black Mountain Road Exit (or nearby Hayne Road).

    Hwy 35 between Bunker Hill and Crystal Springs Road will remain closed for a couple more years, until San Mateo County completes the new bridge. The original 1920's-era bridge in that location was seismically insufficient and was demolished early last year.

  4. Now that our construction project is concluded on the dam, the San Mateo County Department of Public Works will be scheduling the repair work on Hightway 35, its reopening.
