Document Description
The proposed Project is located in Alameda County between the Capitol Corridor Oakland Coliseum Station to the north and Newark Junction to the south. Currently, CCJPA operates Capitol Corridor passenger rail service along the Niles Subdivision (owned by Union Pacific Railroad (UPRR)) between Oakland and Fremont/Newark. Key components of the proposed South Bay Connect Project include:
• Relocation of Capitol Corridor passenger rail operations to the Coast Subdivision (owned by UPRR);
• Upgrades to the Coast Subdivision to accommodate additional passenger rail service; and
• Construction of a new passenger rail station at the existing Ardenwood Park & Ride in Fremont that would connect rail service with express buses, private shuttles, and the surrounding bicycle and pedestrian network.
