Title

Measure RR Program Traction Power System Improvements Project

Description

The San Francisco Bay Area Rapid Transit District (BART) is an electricity powered commuter transit line. Electrification is provided by ''traction power" substations located along the transit line right-of-way, BART proposes improvements to one of its existing gap breaker station, referred herein as "KXA". KXA is located approximately 150-feet northwest of the intersection of 4th Street and Jefferson Street, approximately 30- feet south of the K-Line in the City of Oakland. The proposed project would require replacement of the existing gap breaker station equipment. The gap breaker station isolates appropriate electrified third rail sections for maintenance and repair purposes and de-energizes third rail sections during emergencies for the K-Line.
