Single tracking at Balboa Park Station may cause delays June 6

Dear Customer:

On Sunday, June 6, 2010, our construction crews will need to shut down one of the tracks at Balboa Station, which may result in delays of up to 10 minutes in both directions.  In addition, if you are heading east and getting off at any station on the Dublin/Pleasanton line, you will need to transfer at 24th Street/Mission Station because trains going to and from Dublin/Pleasanton will operate only as far as 24th Street/Mission Street Station on that day.  

On June 6 we will also close off part of the Balboa Park Station so you will need to board trains in the southern part of the platform.

The delays and temporary boarding requirement are necessary as we do the work to extend the mezzanine to create the new west side entrance.  In order to do this work we need to turn off the power to the tracks under the work site and close off the construction area.

We recommend that you adjust your travel plans accordingly to take the potential delays and change of service into account. 

We apologize for any inconvenience and thank you for your patience.
