North Berkeley Station: access impacts expected from work on raised crosswalk

Work is scheduled to begin on October 23, 2023, on the cycle-track on roadway on the backside of North Berkeley Station Plaza between Virginia Street and Delaware Street (“West Drive"). This is the latest step for the North Berkeley Access Improvements Project. Construction impacts will include the following:

  • Crews will be grinding the existing roadway markings and striping a new two-way cycle track on the west side of the road. They will route drivers around the work area as needed.
  • Once the cycle-track is completed, the roadway will be converted from two-way to one-way operation northbound (from Delaware Street to Virginia Street), so drivers will no longer be able to turn in to the road from Virginia Street (see map). Drivers will still be able to access the west parking lot from Acton Street and from Delaware Street via northbound West Drive.
  • All drivers exiting the west parking lots will exit west onto Acton Street or north onto Virginia Street. 

Most work will be carried out between 7am and 3pm with occasional weekend work.

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, visit bart.gov/nberkeleybike

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