BART Undergoes Temporary Parking Changes

Released by BART:

As part of our systemwide Earthquake Safety Program, construction will begin to strengthen the elevated structures at the San Leandro BART station to better withstand future earthquakes.

This work will require the temporary closure of some daily fee parking spaces starting the week of Monday, July 16, 2012. Download the Passenger Bulletin (.pdf) for a map.

The work will be conducted in phases and is expected to be completed in approximately three months. Individual spaces may be re-opened as work is completed. The contractor will post “No Parking” signs in the designated areas prior to work beginning. Vehicles that are not moved from areas that have been marked with “No Parking” signs on the date posted will be subject to ticketing and/or towing. Please watch for signs with safety information and other notices. We appreciate your patience and cooperation during this work and apologize for the inconvenience.

A related project to strengthen the San Leandro Station will occur in the future. As always, safety is BART’s top priority. Our aim is to strengthen BART as quickly as possible, while maintaining BART service.
