VTA’s BART Silicon Valley Phase II Project will extend BART service six miles from the Berryessa Transit Center into downtown San Jose and ending in the City of Santa Clara. Early construction preparation will begin in summer 2022, followed by initial construction-related activities anticipated to begin in 2023.
Before any of these construction activities can begin, we need your help! In order to ensure efficient communications, VTA is requesting you to provide your contact information for important updates on nearby construction activities. The brief survey below asks for your contact information, address, and additional characteristics regarding your property, residence, or place of business. Your timely participation in this survey will be essential for the project to maintain open lines of communication with the community while aiming to deliver the project in an efficient manner. If you would like to request a hard-copy survey and other information regarding the project, please call the project hotline at 408-321-2345 or email us

Business Resource Program
The objective of the Phase II Project Business Resource Program is to help minimize construction-related impacts on surrounding small businesses while acting as a responsible steward of taxpayer dollars. The primary goal in the development of this plan is to put forward a comprehensively structured, yet customized BRP crafted to meet the specific needs of businesses along the construction corridor. The Phase II BRP will build on: the lessons learned from past VTA projects; proactive VTA policies already in place during Phase II preconstruction; best practices employed by similar transit projects in the United States; knowledge of the unique needs of the Santa Clara Valley business community; and the new realities of business services and engagement modeling during an extended period of recovery from an unprecedented pandemic.
Building Monitoring Program
As part of the Project’s environmental clearance, VTA must perform pre-construction surveys and monitoring on select buildings adjacent to construction areas to assess and develop a baseline of the current architectural and structural condition, perform monitoring during construction, and conduct post-construction surveys. Additional coordination will follow with properties identified as needing surveying and/or monitoring.
