North Berkeley Station: access impacts expected from work to install bike lockers on plaza

Work is scheduled to begin on March 12, 2024, on the installation of new, double-decker elockers on the North Berkeley Station Plaza. Once completed, the new elockers will accommodate oversized bicycles, greatly improving bicycle security at the station.

This is the latest step in the North Berkeley Access Improvements Project. Construction impacts will include the following:

  • Crews will deliver partially assembled lockers to the plaza using a truck with a trailer, with a flagger.
  • Crews will complete assembly of the lockers on the Plaza, one small section at a time.
  • Pedestrians will be routed around the work areas with barriers and wayfinding signage as the crew moves around the Plaza. ADA access to the station will be maintained at all times.
  • Cyclists using existing elockers will be notified ahead of time, and signs will be posted on elockers that will be temporarily unavailable to users.

Most work will be carried out between 7 am and 5 pm on weekdays. The installation is expected to last 3-4 weeks.

The project includes bicycle and pedestrian access improvements in the satellite parking lots to the northwest of the station as well as the main station area. For questions, comments and details of the scope of work, including an image of the double-decker elockers, visit bart.gov/nberkeleybike

Thank you for your patience as we complete this important work.
