Bicycle Connector Project improves bike access to Ashby Station

A major improvement for bicyclists has just been completed at Ashby Station. 

The Ashby BART Bicycle Access Improvement Project provides a better and safer bicycle connection to BART from both the west and east, as well as closing a gap in Berkeley’s bike network between Adeline Street and MLK Jr. Way across BART property, connecting Woolsey St. to Prince Street. There is now a one-way inbound bike lane from Woolsey Street-Adeline Street into the station area as well as a two-way cycle-track from MLK Jr. Way-Prince Street into and out of the station area.

There is a new bike lane at Ashby BART Station

The MLK Jr Way-Prince Street station area driveway has become one-way inbound only for vehicles. The Adeline Street/Woolsey Street station area driveway remains one-way outbound only for vehicles, but bicycles can now circulate in both directions. The project also installed directional curb ramps at the Woolsey Street-Adeline Street driveway, so they align with the intersection’s crosswalks.

To complement the BART project, the City of Berkeley will start construction this spring on crossing improvements to both Adeline and MLK Jr. Way, expected to be complete by spring 2026.
