Officials say the infusion of dollars helps solidify federal funding for the BART extension

San Jose’s BART extension got a boost of $375 million in state funding from the Bay Area’s regional transportation agency this week, bringing a much needed infusion of cash to the future megaproject.

Officials on Thursday said the money approved this week helps solidify critical funding promised from the federal government. “This is very good progress for Bay Area workers and commuters because it moves the BART project forward,” she wrote. The BART extension is considered one of the most expensive transportation infrastructure projects in the country and intends to wrap a ring of U-shaped rail service starting in north San Jose, through downtown, and up into Santa Clara.
