Time/date: Feb 25, 2008

Source:

On Feb 25, Caltrain will open the new northbound platform at Burlingame Station. The new northbound platform will be on the east side of the station, opposite from the main station building. Passengers must use the crossings at North Lane or Howard Avenue to access the southbound platform. Ticket vending machines and validators will be available on the new platform.

Southbound passengers can board the trains as it is currently.

Once the project is completed, the "hold out" rule at Burlingame Station will be removed, improving overall reliability. The rebuilt platforms will also be accessible to passengers in wheelchairs.
