North Burlingame/Rollins Road Specific Plan

City of Burlingame

DC&E led a consultant team to examine potential land use and circulation changes in the northern part of Burlingame to take advantage of two significant projects occurring in the area. The Millbrae Intermodal Station, immediately adjacent to the Plan Area, opened in the spring of 2003. This station is the southern terminus of BART's San Francisco International Airport line and offers cross-platform connections to the Caltrain system. Additionally, Mills Peninsula Hospital is in the initial design stages to replace its existing facility on El Camino Real. The Specific Plan responds to these projects, while also providing for the continued viability of the Rollins Road industrial corridor, where businesses are closely tied to activities that take place at nearby San Francisco International Airport. Land use changes in the Plan Area were developed in response to the needs of Burlingame's existing industrial base, the proximity to the new intermodal station, and housing needs identified in Burlingame's recently adopted Housing Element Update. The Specific Plan was adopted by the City of Burlingame in September 2004.
