eBART
Eastern Contra Costa County is the fastest growing portion of the Bay Area, and expects a 53 percent increase in households and a 132 percent increase in jobs between 2000 and 2025. East County already has one of the slowest commutes in the region, with average travel time up almost 25 percent between 1990 and 2000. eBART is a proposed 21-mile BART extension into East Contra Costa County. The proposed extension would operate in the median of State Route 4 and would continue east toward Byron. The proposed project would provide an alternative to the heavily congested State Route 4 corridor.
