  • History

    San Bruno station was on the north side of San Bruno Ave until 1962 when it moved to near the corner of Huntington and Sylvan. In 2000, to allow construction of the BART extension to SFO the station moved north, under I-380 on Herman Street, just off Huntington Ave. near Tanforan Shopping Center and the current San Bruno BART station. This allowed construction of the BART subway beneath the Caltrain tracks to the airport. The temporary station was open from 2000 to 2003, and a new Caltrain station at the 1962 location reopened in 2003 shortly before completion of the BART extension.

    In 2010 construction began on the San Bruno Grade Separation Project, building elevated tracks over San Bruno, San Mateo, and Angus Avenues in downtown San Bruno, and a new station above the intersection of San Mateo and San Bruno Avenues. Starting in October 2010, for the duration of the construction, the San Bruno Caltrain station was moved to a temporary location two blocks south of the 1962 station, at Huntington and Georgia Avenues. Trains began using the elevated tracks on May 26, 2013, and the elevated station opened on April 1, 2014.
