Installation work to begin week of August 11th for Next Generation Fare Gates at UN Plaza entrance to Civic Center Station

The week of August 11th, BART will begin the installation of a second set of Next Generation Fare Gates on the concourse level of Civic Center Station. The work will happen at the fare gate entrance in the center of the concourse level of Civic Center Station near UN Plaza (Array 2 in the map).

A temporary barrier will be installed to provide a safe workspace for the installation team as well as to protect riders from construction. Installing this new array is expected to take about two weeks to complete. The station’s other two fare gate arrays will remain open during the installation work. There will be signage to direct riders to the open fare gates.

The latest work at Civic Center Station comes after BART successfully installed Next Generation Fare Gates at the Seventh Street entrance to the station in July. In April, crews successfully installed a Next Generation Fare Gate at the elevator entrance on the Civic Center platform. Once work on this set of gates is complete, BART will move forward with replacing the last remaining array of old gates.

All BART stations will have new fare gates by the end of 2025. You can learn more about BART’s Next Generation Fare Gate project here.
