Caltrain is suspending its service between Hillsdale and Palo Alto stations on the weekends of July 15-16 and 22-23 to accommodate Caltrain electrification construction and testing. Construction crews will continue to erect poles and hang wires for the overhead catenary system.
Bus bridge service will be available to Caltrain-dependent riders, but passengers should expect delays and longer travel times, according to the transit agency.
These will be the 15th and 16th of approximately 30 weekends in 2023 in which service will be adjusted to accommodate construction and testing for electrified service, which is expected to launch passenger service in fall 2024. Thus far, construction crews have installed 59 poles this year along with over 431,000 feet of wire.
