Community Outreach Calendar
VTA has established several committees for BART Silicon Valley to provide input and help enhance VTA’s outreach efforts
Policy Advisory Board (PAB)
In July 2008, the policy advisory boards for the BART Silicon Valley and BART Warm Springs Extension merged to become the Silicon Valley Rapid Transit Corridor and BART Warm Springs Extension Policy Advisory Board (PAB). The PAB provides a forum for policy guidance and decision-making throughout project development. The PAB is scheduled to meet on a quarterly basis throughout the year.
Community Working Groups (CWG)
VTA works with established Community Working Groups (CWGs) to gain feedback and facilitate local community participation during project development and construction. In the past, four CWGs were engaged in representing Milpitas, the Hostetter/Alum Rock area, Downtown San Jose, and Santa Clara. Members of these working groups include representatives of neighborhood and business associations, community organizations, advocacy groups, major property owners, and planning commissioners. VTA is currently recruiting members to participate in the newly formed Milpitas and Berryessa Area CWGs. If you interested please contact VTA-BART Outreach at (408) 934-2603.
City Partners
VTA will continue to work closely with local jurisdictional partners throughout the planning, design and construction of the project. VTA and city staff provide ongoing project updates and briefings to city councils and city commissions.
