BART will begin its next set of major trackway repairs during President's Day weekend, replacing worn rail between the Rockridge, Orinda and Lafayette stations.
Trains will not run between Rockridge and Lafayette between Feb. 18 and 20 as workers replace some 7,200 feet of rail. Riders will instead be transported from the Lafayette station to Rockridge via a free bus bridge.
BART will also conduct track work between Rockridge and Orinda across five weekends in April, May and June to replace an interlocking, which allows trains to move across different rail lines. Both projects are part of BART's effort to replace and modernize rail infrastructure that has been in use for decades, in some cases since the rail system first opened.
