Snapshot:
Warm Springs Extension
Bay Area Rapid Transit’s (BART) long-awaited Warm Springs Extension opened for service Saturday, March 25. The $890 million Warm Springs Extension, which connects the new station with the 45-year-old Fremont station, comes in at more than $100 million under budget. In addition to serving a fast-growing community, the opening of the new station paves the way for BART to Silicon Valley, a 10-mile Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority project that’s under construction and expected to open for service later this year.
