BART also received grant funding to provide and install: permeable pavers and associated underdrains; replace and modify storm drain piping and inlets; construct bio-retention areas (rain gardens) to treat storm water more naturally that runs off the parking lots and before it enters the storm drain system, this allows for natural percolation; replace concrete curbs and gutter.

This project was made more challenging with multiple owner directed changes: replace the 8in fire protection line, valve and backflow preventer; provide and install conduit from Lot C to the electrical room for an adjacent solar panel project; remove and replace the station plaza concrete at the north station entrance to make it more ADA accessible; install bollards at the north station entrance to keep public vehicles out.
