State Route 84 is a split-section California State Highway consisting of two sections: an east-west arterial road running from San Gregorio to Menlo Park, across the Dumbarton Bridge through Fremont and ending at I-580 in Livermore. The other section is a north-west arterial that begins in Rio Vista and ends at the Interstate 80 interchange in West Sacramento. However, plans are underway to decommission SR-84 at the border of West Sacramento.
Route 84 is legally defined to continue from I-580 to Route 4 in Antioch, but there are currently no plans in place to bridge the gap at this time. A plan to build a $600 million toll road called the Mid-State Tollway along the proposed route was suspended in 2001 due to local opposition.
