**Irvington** is a planned [Bay Area Rapid Transit](/source/Bay_Area_Rapid_Transit) (BART) [infill station](/source/Infill_station) in the Irvington District of [Fremont, California](/source/Fremont%2C_California).[3] As of November 2023[\[update\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Irvington_station_(BART)&action=edit), estimates from the city anticipated construction to begin in mid-2026, with the station opening for service in 2031.[4]

## History

A 1980 map showing proposed BART extensions, featuring Irvington

The station has been planned since it was studied as part of the [Warm Springs extension](/source/Silicon_Valley_BART_extension#Warm_Springs_extension) in 1979, and its construction was approved by the BART board in 1992.[5]

The Warm Springs extension began construction through the Irvington District in 2009,[6] to connect [Fremont](/source/Fremont_(BART_station)) and [Warm Springs](/source/Warm_Springs_(BART_station)). The proposed station at the center of Irvington, once considered optional, was part of the extension.[7] However funding for construction of the station fell through. The station had been envisioned for completion in 2015.[8] Provisions for personnel access and preliminary foundation work were included when track was laid through the site.[2]

The city of Fremont had planned to finance the $140 million station through [redevelopment agency](/source/Redevelopment_agency) bonds in 2009, but the bonds were cancelled when the [California State Legislature](/source/California_State_Legislature) abolished the redevelopment agency.[9][10] In 2014,[5] Measure BB and the Alameda County Transportation Expenditure Plan received voter approval with $120 million listed for the Irvington BART station that was contingent on full definition of the capital project and its inclusion in a future Capital Improvement Program.[11][12] A reevaluation of the [environmental impact study](/source/Environmental_impact_study) was undertaken by the city in 2017.[13]

The BART Board of Directors confirmed they had voted to authorize the Irvington station in August 2019,[14] with construction to start in August 2022 and complete by August 2026.[15] As of November 2023, the start of construction was pushed back to mid-2026 and the station opening to 2031.[4]
