Document Description
On September 15, 1992, the BART Board of Directors certified a Final Environmental Impact Report (FEIR), adopted a Mitigation Monitoring Plan (MMP) and adopted a project for the BART Warm Springs Extension (WSX) consisting of a 5.4-mile, two-station extension of the existing BART system, with stations at Irvington and Warm Springs. The purpose of the adopted project was to extend BART service south of the Fremont BART Station to southern Alameda County. The adopted project has not been built. In conjunction with the recently passed ballot measure for the reauthorization of the Alameda County Transportation Sales Tax, a revised project consisting of a 5.4-mile, one-station extension is now being proposed. The certified FEIR must be reviewed, updated and supplemented as necessary, based on changes to the adopted project, changes to the study area, and changes to the State CEQA Guidelines since the original document was published and the project was adopted. An optional station at Washington Boulevard and Osgood Road in the Irvington District will also be evaluated. (The FEIR and MMP are available for review through Richard Wenzel, Project Director.)
