The original idea for the Richmond Parkway came from a state proposal for State Route 93 in the early 1980s. However, when the state did not implement the plan, local officials assembled $200 million in state and local funds to fund a road largely following the same route as proposed Route 93, which was built in the 1990s.[Katherine Tam, [http://www.contracostatimes.com/traffic/ci_8713890 City looks to unload costly Parkway] , Contra Costa Times, March 27, 2008. Accessed 2008-03-27] While it mostly functions as an expressway, some parts do not meet state expressway standards. ]The city of Richmond would like Caltrans to take it over, but currently Caltrans is not in favor of the idea.
