Martinez to build a bridge linking to future Amtrak parking lot

On the north side of the railroad tracks, Martinez will build a 150-foot bridge across Alhambra Creek from Berrellesa Street to a future parking lot on the 6.8-acre property where two indoor sports complexes sit. The city is developing plans to put in about 300 parking spaces to be shared by the sports complexes and the Amtrak station.
