BART - Projects

Projects

The Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG) projects that by 2035 the population of the entire Bay Area will be 34% higher than 2000 census figures — with more than 2 million additional residents and nearly 1.5 million more jobs. BART continues to move forward with new projects that will serve our growing region.

Projects

Hayward Maintenance Complex

Over the next 30 years, BART will require additional vehicles to meet future demand associated with regional population growth, system expansions for the Warm Springs and Silicon Valley/San Jose Extension projects, and additional riders from the Oakland Airport Connector, eBART, and Livermore projects.

Accordingly, BART requires expanded maintenance and storage facilities to serve the expanded fleet. The proposed Hayward Maintenance Complex Project would consist of acquisition and improvement to three properties on the west side of the existing Hayward Yard and the construction of additional storage tracks for a maximum of 250 vehicles on undeveloped BART property on the east side of the Hayward Yard. The project site is zoned for industrial uses and the proposed activities would be consistent with this zoning designation.
