Security grille replacement at Embarcadero Station new start date: May 6

On March 20 of this year we closed an entrance at this station in preparation for the installation of new security grilles. Unfortunately due to a defect in manufacturing, the grilles had to be returned to the manufacturer for repair. We expect to complete this repair by or before May 8, 2013.

On May 6, 2013 we will close an additional entrance at Main & Market street to remove and replace that security grille. We will then proceed to update all the entrances to this station on a rotating basis that will involve no more than two entrances (at opposite sides of the station) at a time. Each entrance will be closed for approximately two weeks while the work is completed.

We realize that this will cause you inconvenience and appreciate your patience during this important maintenance work.
