Parking alert: Parking to be reduced at Fremont Station until early 2027 to support critical track rebuilding project

Beginning the week of May 25, 2026, and continuing through February 2027, access to vehicle parking, bike facilities and pedestrian pathways will be limited at Fremont Station due to construction activities. The parking lots next to Mowry Avenue (see map) will be fenced off to stage construction equipment. Traffic control and wayfinding signs will be posted to direct vehicles, bikes, and pedestrians throughout construction. Approximately 750 of Fremont Station’s roughly 1,900 parking spaces will be temporarily closed. Based on spring occupancy counts, there should still be plenty of parking to accommodate current demand.

The parking closure will support the rebuilding of a key section of trackway that has been in service for five decades and must be replaced. This summer, BART crews will replace an interlocking near Fremont Station. An interlocking is a section of the BART system that allows trains to safely move from track to track. 

Dates when the work will require weekend shutdowns of train service between Fremont, Union City, and Warm Springs/South Fremont stations include: July 25-26, August 15-16, August 29-30, September 12-13, September 26-27.
