Transit Village
As reported in 2006 by the East Bay Express, an East Bay newspaper, there were plans to build a transit village at or adjacent to the site. The purpose of the village is to promote smart growth and encourage transit use. It is modeled after the Fruitvale Model, specifically the Fruitvale Transit Village located at the Fruitvale BART station in Oakland, California. Similar projects can be found surrounding BART and Caltrain stations, regional ferry terminals, Park & Ride lots, and Transit Centers, all aimed at reducing sprawl and traffic. Planning
In 2016 an ultra light rail service was proposed and supported by the Richmond City Council to connect the center with the city's waterfront (Marina Bay). In 2017 the Metropolitan Transportation Commission mulled expanded parking here to address projected double digit traffic growth in the area through 2040. It has also been studied as a potential location for a future BART station extension along the Richmond–Warm Springs/South Fremont line. Notes
