Pleasant Hill elevator modernization project for parking garage elevators

The parking garage elevators will be taken out of service for modernization. We are working with our partners at the Contra Costa County Transportation Authority who have provided funding for this project to increase the reliability, performance, efficiency and safety of these elevators.

Each of the four elevators in a group will be modernized two at a time which will include upgrading critical components and allow for new technology to be installed.  

We anticipate the work will take 15 weeks for each set of elevators and all work should be completed by September, 2018.

We apologize for the poor reliability and inconvenience these elevators has caused you and appreciate your patience and understanding during this project.

To check if an elevator is in service before arriving at a station, please call 510-834-LIFT (510-834-5438) or 888-2-ELEVAT (888-235-3828), or sign up for elevator status alerts at www.bart.gov/elevators.
