Las cuadrillas trabajarán durante las 24 horas y deberán cerrar el trayecto entre las estaciones Concord y Pleasant Hill. Esta crítica obra reemplazará vías férreas de casi 50 años de antigüedad, lo cual es posible gracias a los fondos de la Medida RR autorizada por los votantes. Durante las horas de servicio, los pasajeros que deban cubrir el trayecto entre esas estaciones serán trasladados por autobuses gratuitos. El equipo de mantenimiento de BART necesita que la vía esté cerrada durante cuatro fines de semana a fin de reemplazar vías, balasto, vitales equipos eléctricos y de control del tren, y para hacer mejoras en el sistema de drenaje y rehabilitar las plataformas de la estación Concord. Este período se extiende desde el último fin de semana de abril hasta el segundo fin de semana de junio. Además de que se verán luces por la noche, los vecindarios cercanos a las vías férreas de BART podrán esperar ruido de vehículos de construcción y la operación de maquinaria pesada durante este período de mantenimiento. Una vez que finalice el trabajo, los vecinos notarán un nivel de ruido reducido de los trenes, en tanto que los pasajeros de BART disfrutarán de un viaje más suave, más seguro y más confiable. Los clientes que pasen por las estaciones Concord o Pleasant Hill deberán bajar de los trenes para tomar autobuses gratuitos, suministrados por County Connection, que los transportarán hasta la siguiente estación en su dirección de viaje. Las fechas de estos transportes serán el 27 y 28 de abril, 11 y 12 de mayo, 25 al 27 de mayo y 8 y 9 de junio. Los clientes que viajen por esta zona deberán añadir 20 minutos a su tiempo estimado de viaje. Se recomienda a los pasajeros que viajan hacia San Francisco, y que típicamente se estacionan en las estaciones Concord, North Concord o Pittsburg/Bay Point, que manejen hasta la estación Pleasant Hill y se estacionen ahí gratuitamente, para evitar el transporte en autobuses.

A Title VI/Environmental Justice analysis was conducted on the Pittsburg Center Station on March 19, 2015. Per the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) Title VI Circular (Circular) 4702.1B, Title VI Requirements and Guidelines for Federal Transit Administration Recipients (October 1, 2012), the District is required to conduct a Title VI Service and Fare Equity Analysis (Title VI Equity Analysis) for the Project's proposed service and fare plan six months prior to revenue service. Accordingly, staff completed an updated Title VI Equity Analysis for the BART to Antioch (Project) service and fare plan, which evaluates whether the Project’s proposed service and fare will have a disparate impact on minority populations or a disproportionate burden on low-income populations based on the District’s Disparate Impact and Disproportionate Burden Policy (DI/DB Policy) adopted by the Board on July 11, 2013 and FTA approved Title VI service and fare methodologies.

The maps depict non-home origin points of customers who use each station, and the points are color coded by mode of access. The points are weighted to reflect average weekday ridership at the station. For example, an origin point with a weight of seven will appear on the map as seven points, scattered around the actual point of origin. Note that the number of trips may appear underrepresented in cases where multiple trips originate at the same location. The following summary sheets contain basic information about each station’s weekday non-home origin trips, such as: • absolute number of entries and estimated non-home origin entries • access mode share • trip origin types • customer demographics. Additionally, the total number of car and bicycle parking spaces at each station are included for context.

  • ART on BART Text
    WIRELESS LANDSCAPES: MAKING THE INVISIBLE INTELLIGIBLE A practical guide for wavespotters An Inspiration "There are some kinds of knowledge too that cannot be obtained from books, but must be gathered by actual observation. The inspection of a formation in nature, which is pointed out to you, will teach you more in regard to it in a few minutes that you could learn from lectures or from reading books in as many hours, and the lesson so received will be better remembered. "How lonely would be a journey on which you would see not a single face that you know, and how different it would be if every one you meet were an old friend. So to the tourist new charms must be given to scenery, however attractive it may already be, if he knows something about its geology. The rocks, mountains, valleys and plains, although he sees them for the first time, are old friends in perhaps new and interesting forms. He meets them with a certain pleasure, for he understands what he sees and he is given the materials for many a happy hour of quiet and profitable reflection at home, on what he has seen on his railway journey." From An American Geological Railway Guide, by James R. MacFarlane, Ph.D., New York: D. Appleton and Company, 2nd edition, 1890, pp. 3-4.
