Project Description:
In 1972, the BART system opened for revenue service. That same year the San Francisco Airport Access Project report recommended linking BART to the San Francisco International Airport (SFO). Today, that vision is being realized in the BART-SFO Extension Project.
In 1991, BART initiated Phase I of a $2.6 billion extensions program that expanded its service, adding five stations and twenty-one miles of track, creating a total system of ninety-five miles of double track and thirty-nine stations.
In 1997, the next phase of construction commenced with BART moving further down the San Francisco Peninsula. The extension of BART to SFO added 8.7 miles of new track to the existing system and new stations in South San Francisco, San Bruno, Millbrae, and a station located inside the airport at the new international terminal. The BART-SFO Extension Project was completed in 2002.
Transdyn provided the Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) System that monitors power distribution, station fire alarms and facilities, and also provides ventilation control for the extension’s two tunnels.
