Safe Trips to BART: Focus Station Areas

Focus Station Area Action Plans (FSAAP) identify tailored infrastructure improvement concepts for a selection of public roadways on the High Injury Network (HIN) in Station Study Areas. The HIN identifies public roadways with concentrations of crashes that resulted in fatalities or severe injuries for the five-year period from 2019 through 2023. Station Study Areas were developed using the median distance that riders travel to access BART from home ranging from 0.66 to 1.96 miles. Improvement concepts are drawn from the countermeasure toolkit included in Safe Trips to BART: An Action Plan for Safer Roadways. These FSAAPs will support local cities and counties in securing funding to design and implement identified roadway safety improvements.

Seven stations were chosen for the FSAAP effort. They were selected based on geographic diversity, collision history, and local agency input. The table below provides access to the draft FSAAPs, the HIN maps, and agencies with roadways or intersections on the HIN. Please visit the Virtual Open House to find out more information, provide feedback about the FSAAPs in a brief survey, and sign up for the project email list. Survey closes July 23, 2025.

In-person pop-ups were conducted at each focus station in November and December of 2024 to gather input from riders regarding their traffic, bicycle, and pedestrian safety concerns. Additionally, riders encountered posters in these stations encouraging them to complete a traffic safety survey, which was open to the public until December 19. Survey responses helped BART and local agencies identify streets and intersections of particular concern.

BART worked with each partner agency to develop the draft FSAAP for each focus station, which were published June 25, 2025. Please visit the Virtual Open House if you want to provide feedback on these draft plans no later than July 23, 2025.
