El Cerrito del Norte garage closures for lighting improvements starting October 26

Starting Wednesday, October 26, 2022, portions of the garage at El Cerrito del Norte Station will be closed for approximately seven weeks to allow our contractor to retrofit and upgrade the garage lighting. Work will proceed in phases with closure of one or two floors at a time, beginning at 8 PM each night.  Work areas will be reopened at the end of each shift by 5 AM the following morning for parking.  ADA spaces will remain available for parking throughout the construction. At no time will be the entire garage be closed.  

This is part of a larger lighting improvement project that upgrades and improves the lighting in 14 of our station garages throughout the system. This project replaces over 10,500 fixtures and adds new lighting controls that will make lighting in the garages more energy efficient, brighter, and in step with our sustainability goals.

El Cerrito Del Norte is the final garage in the project and is expected to be completed in the first quarter of 2023. We will provide updates as necessary during the project.

The 14 station garages that are part of this project are: Hayward, Walnut Creek (BART-owned only), Millbrae, Fruitvale, Daly City, Pleasant Hill, Concord, San Bruno, MacArthur, Colma, Dublin/Pleasanton, Richmond, El Cerrito Del Norte, and South San Francisco.

We apologize for any inconvenience and appreciate your patience.
