Parking spaces closed for tree planting at Rockridge Station 6/17-7/9

Between June 17 and July 9, 2019, we will close approximately 36 permit spaces and 5 ADA spaces in the East lot bounded by Keith and College Avenues (see map below). We will have equipment and workers in that area planting new trees between 8am and 4pm. Please anticipate some noise.   

BART conducted a Rockridge Station Hazard Tree Assessment by an International Society of Arboriculture Certified Arborist in 2017. The results advises BART to remove hazard-trees adjacent to the parking lots at the station. The trees along Keith and Shafter Avenues were removed in January 2018. After receiving comments from the community, BART planted new trees on Shafter Ave as part of Phase I work.  BART will plant the remaining trees on Keith Ave as part of Phase II work.   

The affected ADA spaces will be temporarily relocated to stalls 1-7 and 94-97, as needed.
 
We apologize for this inconvenience and appreciate your patience.
