The BART Pittsburg Center station will be closed all day Sunday to accommodate installation of “next-generation” fare gates, the agency said.
During the temporary station closure, Yellow Line service will continue to run between the Pittsburg/Bay Point and Antioch stations. Trains will run through Pittsburg Center without stopping, the agency said.
Passengers who use Pittsburg Center should instead use the Antioch or Pittsburg/Bay Point stations during the temporary closure, according to BART. A free shuttle will replace train service between Pittsburg Center and Pittsburg/Bay Point.
The “next-generation” fare gates are new gates designed to improve safety and reduce fare evasion. The gates are being installed at all 50 BART stations.
