BART is performing rail destressing between Lafayette and Pleasant Hill stations at midnight tonight. To create a safe work space for our crews, BART will reduce service from two tracks to one while the work is taking place. Riders can anticipate delays of 20-25 minutes.

@bart.gov

Reminder: Trains will share one track between San Leandro and Bay Fair today. Riders in the area should expect 25–30-minute delays. There will be no Green Line service for the entire day but we will continue to provide service to all 50 stations. https://bsky.app/profile/bart.gov/post/3myl3fuz6gs2t

Service will be reduced from two tracks to one this Sunday, October 25 between San Leandro and Bay Fair stations so crews in the trackway can manage vegetation that could affect our ability to offer safe and reliable service. The work will start before we begin service and continue until 6pm.

East Bay riders who would typically use the Green Line can instead use the Orange Line and transfer at Bay Fair to a Blue Line train to travel transbay.

San Francisco riders can take the Blue Line and transfer to the Orange Line at Bay Fair. Orange and Blue line trains will be extended in length from six to eight cars throughout the day to provide additional capacity for riders who typically use the Green Line.

Watch BART crews install this new diamond junction in a weekend. This was part of a larger effort to replace a vital interlocking between Union City and Fremont stations that was nearing the end of its lifespan.

BART continues to invest in trackside upgrades, track replacement, and modern train control technology to make the system even more resilient.

During FY26, BART completed 98 miles of track grinding and surfacing, added three new substations and four portable substations, increasing power capacity from Colma to Downtown Oakland by 30%, upgraded eight stations with new LED lighting, and completed three station glow-ups.

An interlocking is the fail-safe system that allows trains to safely move from one track to another. It’s a key piece of railroad infrastructure, and replacing it will help keep service safe and reliable for years to come.

This is the first in a multi-phase Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) that will ultimately transform approximately 6.5 acres of underutilized BART parking lots into 743 new apartments.

El Cerrito Plaza is one of several major TOD projects that BART is advancing across its system, designed to generate ridership and contribute to the agency’s long-term financial sustainability, strengthen local economies, and provide equitable access to opportunity. bsky.app/profile/bart...

There is still more work to do before people can move in to the Transit-Oriented Development at the El Cerrito Plaza BART Station but construction has been zooming along this year thanks to Phase One’s unique modular construction! It took less than 3 weeks to install all the modular housing units.

When the Loma Prieta earthquake hit on Tuesday October 17, 1989, BART was put to the test like never before. Not only did service resume just a few hours after the quake, BART ran 24-hours a day, seven days a week for about a month while the bridge was out.

Reminder this is today: At 10:15am, BART staff will trigger our ShakeAlert early warning earthquake system to ensure it is functioning and working correctly. Once triggered, trains will automatically slow down to 27mph. Then all trains will come to a very brief stop.

BART will participate in the 2026 International ShakeOut Day earthquake drill on Thursday, October 15, to test our emergency response systems and to help raise public awareness of the importance of having a plan and being prepared.
