SAN CARLOS TRANSIT CENTER PROJECT
In late December 2016, the San Mateo County Transit District (SamTrans) will begin
construction of the San Carlos Multi-Modal Transit Center Project (Transit Center Project),
located on the west side of the railroad corridor at the site of the existing San Carlos Caltrain
Station.
The Transit Center Project consists of transforming the existing San Carlos Caltrain Station
parking lot into a multi-modal transit center that will better serve the community by
improving safety and accessibility between SamTrans fixed route bus services, Caltrain
commuter rail services, local shuttles, pedestrians and bicyclists.
The construction of the new parking lot will take place during weekdays. However, in order
to maintain regular vehicular traffic service along El Camino Real, some activities must be
conducted during nights or weekend. SamTrans will notify neighbors in advance of periods of
night and weekend work.
The existing parking area along the northbound El Camino Real between Olive and Cherry
Streets will be removed to permit construction of the new sidewalk, curb and gutter.
Construction of the Transit Center Project is expected to be complete in July 2017. For more
information on the project please visit www.samtrans.com/sctc or call the Construction
Outreach Hotline at 650-508-7726.
The Transit Center Project is part of the larger mixed-use transit-oriented development, the
San Carlos Transit Village, which is a joint development between SamTrans and Prometheus
Real Estate Group. For information on the San Carlos Transit Village, please call 650-9313496
