BART patron parking at the East DubIiD/Pl-...ntnn station may be iDsufficient to ac:rn......odate ridersbip. Provide a total of 4,500 parking spaces at the East Dub1in/Pleasanton station (Circulation Program 7.2 calls for the City to request that BART provide 4.500 parking spaces). The BART Dub1in/Pleasanton Extension EIR projected a demand for 3,800 parking stalls at the East and West Dub1in/Pleasanton BART stations by the year 2005. The General Plan assumed 2,500 and 2,000 stalls, respectively, for the stations and identified a need of 4,500 stalls at the East DublinIPleasanton station for the period beyond the year 2005. A parking deficit for BART patrons would have a significant impact on freeway operations. Potential BART patrons who are unable to park at the BART stations or in the nearby vicinity will, in all likelihood, drive to work in their private vehicles. A deficit of 2,000 parking spaces would translate to about 1,200 peak-hour vehicle trips, most of which would be expected to use the 1-580 corridor through Castro Valley as an alternate
