SAN MATEO (CBS SF) — As some cities begin to reopen streets and in turn, eliminate outdoor dining parklets, San Mateo plans to keep cars off of a downtown street for good. The San Mateo City Council passed a resolution this week that will establish a pedestrian mall shut down to traffic on South B Street. There will be two sections of it – one between First Ave. and Second. Ave, and one between Second Ave. and Third Ave. Traffic will still run along the avenues.READ MORE: UPDATE: Evacuations Expand As Fawn Fire Near Shasta Lake Grows To 1,200 Acres; Suspected Arsonist Arrested 'I think it's a great idea,' said Gregg Ellson, the Café Leader at Blue Bottle Coffee.
