Escalator & stairs closed at Powell Street 7/28-29

On Friday night July 27 after end of service, we will close the stairs and escalators to the platform at the west end of the station directly in front of the BART Police station. Scaffolding will cover the area as we complete important improvements in the ceiling. Contractors will install fire sprinkler equipment, public address system equipment, new lighting and other electrical equipment as well as new ceiling panels. The stairs and escalator will be unavailable for the whole weekend until the start of service on Monday, July 30.

Please see the map below for the location of the escalator and stairs to be closed.
