Peninsula Corridor Electrification Project

The Peninsula Corridor Electrification Project (PCEP) is a key component of the Caltrain Modernization program. The PCEP would electrify the Caltrain Corridor from San Francisco's 4th and King Caltrain Station to approximately the Tamien Caltrain Station.

The primary purpose of the Project is to improve Caltrain system performance, reduce long-term environmental impact by reducing noise, improving regional air quality and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. An electrified Caltrain system would better address Peninsula commuters' vision of increased service and improved travel times in an environmentally friendly and reliable way. This also is expected to help accommodate increase system ridership through improved system operations.

December 9 through December 15, Caltrain will be doing work during the day and night to install OCS foundations. Foundation work activities will include excavation, drilling, placement of foundations and pouring of concrete. Day work hours will be from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. Night work hours for December 11 through December 13 will be from 7:45 p.m. to 5:30 a.m.and night work hours for December 9 and December 15 will be from 7:45 p.m. to 7:45 a.m. During construction motorists and pedestrians may experience intermittent delays while crews move equipment through at-grade crossings. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and the field team will work as quietly as possible.

During night work hours at the San Bruno station all passengers will board and de-board from the same platforms. Please look for the signs to indicate which platform to use. If you have any questions, feel free to call the project hotline at 650-399-9659 or toll-free at 855-463-4373.
