Numbers such as the number of listings and sales. Or high dollar values. At Alain Pinel Realtors, we think there are also other qualities that distinguish a leader. One is affiliation. Leaders lead because their employees, clients, and industry colleagues repeatedly and successfully do business together. Affiliation is why APR is the most respected purveyor of premier residential real estate in the Bay Area and why we continue to seek exceptional people to join us at the forefront of our industry. Another quality is business acumen. No other firm’s agents match our Realtors’ skill and success rates. Leaders are also responsive—to clients, industry shifts, and new opportunities. We equip our Realtors with leading-edge technical capabilities so that they have an edge on competitors. If you are looking to expand and enrich your real estate career, look to the forefront.

  • Tri-Valley Hub Network Integration Study Final Report
    Tri-Valley Hub Network Integration Study Final Report May 20, 2021 ES-1 Final Report Tri-Valley Hub Network Integration Study Tri-Valley Hub Network Integration Study Final Report Prepared by Livermore Amador Valley Transit Authority (LAVTA) May 20, 2021 Executive Summary The 2018 California State Rail Plan envisions a network of high-speed, intercity corridor, and commuter trains integrated with local transit, providing nearly seamless connections for riders seeking to reach all parts of the state. In corridors where no trains operate, the Rail Plan calls for express buses using the existing highway systems to provide access to the state’s rail system. The Rail Plan identified the I-680 corridor between the Tri-Valley area (i.e. Dublin, Pleasanton, and Livermore) and Suisun City as one such corridor, where express buses could link a Tri-Valley Transit Hub with the Suisun-Fairfield Amtrak Station, a stop for the Capitol Corridor trains. This Tri-Valley Hub Network Integration Study is an effort to define what such express bus service would be: its route, stops, connections with corridor and commuter trains, as well as its likely ridership, revenue, and costs for implementation. The study investigates the BART Dublin/Pleasanton BART station as a candidate for the Tri-Valley Transit Hub, along with potential improvements that could make the facility easier, safer, and more comfortable for riders to use. The study also explores options to better connect northern San Joaquin County communities with the Tri-Valley Hub. The distance between the Suisun Amtrak Station and the Dublin/Pleasanton BART Station is 53 miles, inclusive of a stop at the Martinez Amtrak Station.

    DUBLIN/PLEASANTON BART STATION ACCESS PLAN August 2002 Contents… Plan Summary Access Plan Development Current and Future Conditions Opportunities and Constraints Access Recommendations Bay Area Rapid Transit Planning Department I. PLAN SUMMARY A. Existing Conditions The Dublin/Pleasanton BART Station is an elevated station located in the I-580 freeway median. Constructed in 1997 to serve the rapidly growing Tri-Valley area, it serves as an intermodal transit hub for people traveling from Contra Costa, San Joaquin and eastern Alameda County. Transportation services that center around the Dublin/Pleasanton BART station include several bus and shuttle services, a bike route along Dublin Boulevard, and bicycle and pedestrian access to the twenty-three mile long Iron Horse Regional Trail. The East Bay Regional Park District has plans to connect the Iron Horse Regional Trail, located slightly northwest of the station, to the station. However, because it is not yet connected, it is difficult to navigate between the trail and the station. Once it is connected, it will provide bicyclists and pedestrians access to the station from local areas in Dublin, as well as from Concord, Pleasant Hill, San Ramon, and Danville. Although bicycle parking is available at the station, bicycle thefts are common and there is a waiting list for bicycle lockers. Vehicle parking at the station, located on both sides of the freeway, accommodates 3,039 vehicles. This includes 427 spaces available from a temporary lease from Alameda County Surplus Property Authority (ACSPA). Although the Dublin/ Pleasanton Station provides the second largest number of parking spaces in the BART system, the parking lot fills during the morning commute.
