Ashby Station: access impacts expected from bicycle connector project

Work is scheduled to begin the week of April 29, 2024, on the installation of new segments of Class IV bicycle lanes at Ashby Station. Once completed, the new bicycle facility will provide a connection between Adeline Street and Martin Luther King Jr Way through the BART parking lot, formalizing bicycle circulation in and out of the Adeline Street driveway. Curb ramps on Adeline Street at the driveway will also be upgraded. 

Construction impacts will include the following:

  • The Adeline Street exit driveway will be temporarily closed.
  • The 13 parking spaces at the south end of the parking lot will be blocked. 
  • Parking spaces for GetAround will be temporarily relocated.
  • Pedestrians traveling north-south on the west side of Adeline will be routed around the work area with barriers, ADA-compliant ramps, and temporary wayfinding signage.
  • When the project is completed, the south driveway on Martin Luther King Jr Way will be converted to inbound vehicle movements only.

Most work will be carried out between 7 am and 5 pm on weekdays. The work is expected to last 3-4 months.

In addition to BART’s project, City of Berkeley is currently designing additional bicycle improvements between the BART driveway and Woolsey to the east and between the BART driveway and Prince Street to the west.

Thank you for your patience as we complete this important work.
