Downtown San José station[1][2] is a proposed underground Bay Area Rapid Transit station underneath Santa Clara Street in Downtown San Jose, planned as part of Silicon Valley BART extension Phase II. The station would be co-located with the Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority's existing Santa Clara light rail station, and be located between the proposed 28th Street/Little Portugal station and a transfer station at San Jose Diridon Station. The station eventually connects to the proposed Santa Clara BART station.[3] Revenue service, which will be served by the Orange and Green Lines, is envisioned to start in 2036.[4][5]
History
The original plan for the Silicon Valley BART extension included the Downtown San José station, but full funding could not be secured[6] and the San Jose extension was split into two phases. Phase I, completed on June 13, 2020, was the extension to Berryessa/North San José station.[7] The proposed Downtown San José station is part of a later, unfunded phase II of the Silicon Valley BART extension[8] and would be located between the proposed 28th Street/Little Portugal and Diridon BART stations. Construction is planned to begin in 2024, and revenue service to start in 2036.[4][5]
