BART Irvington Station

A sustainable infill station connecting Fremont neighborhoods

The Irvington Station, located in Fremont’s Irvington District, is an infill stop planned between the existing Fremont and Warm Springs BART stations. The design phase began with preliminary engineering in 2019, and is advancing through final design in coordination with local stakeholders.

Architecturally, the station is designed to complement the surrounding neighborhood context, balancing civic presence with a modest scale that fits within the district’s urban fabric. The elevated structure features clear lines, open sightlines, and a strong emphasis on safety and accessibility. Multi-modal connectivity is central to the design, with provisions for bus bays, bicycle parking, and pedestrian linkages to the East Bay Greenway trail.

The design incorporates sustainable strategies, including natural ventilation, daylighting, and energy-efficient systems, with infrastructure prepared for future solar and EV-charging installations. The project also preserves and interprets the historic remnants of the Gallegos Winery through landscaped pathways and interpretive signage, integrating the site’s heritage into the station experience.

Significant community input guided revisions to reduce the overall footprint, scale back parking, and improve pedestrian and bicycle circulation. When complete, Irvington Station will serve as both a vital transit connection and a catalyst for transit-oriented development, enhancing mobility and neighborhood vitality in south Fremont.
