Fixing Dublin's Traffic Crisis
I-580/680 gridlock is a daily reality. The Dublin Blvd Extension is long overdue.
Key Commitments
- Accelerate Dublin Boulevard Extension timeline
- Create BART last-mile shuttle program
- Require cumulative traffic analysis for projects over 100 units
Stuck in Traffic, Stuck in the Past
If you commute through Dublin, you already know: the I-580/I-680 interchange is a daily gridlock nightmare. What should be a 15-minute drive turns into 45 minutes of stop-and-go. And it’s only getting worse as thousands of new homes come online without matching road capacity.
The Dublin Boulevard Extension — Long Overdue
The Dublin Boulevard Extension — a critical 1.5-mile link from Fallon Road to North Canyons Parkway — has been on the books for years. It would relieve pressure on local streets and provide an alternative east-west route for the growing eastern Dublin neighborhoods. Yet it remains unbuilt. Shivraj will fight to accelerate this timeline and hold the city accountable for delivery.
BART Is Here — But the Last Mile Isn’t
Dublin is fortunate to have two BART stations: Dublin/Pleasanton and West Dublin/Pleasanton. But parking lots fill up before 8 AM, and there are virtually no last-mile options for residents who don’t live within walking distance. A dedicated shuttle program connecting neighborhoods to BART would reduce car trips, ease congestion, and make transit work for everyone.
No More Blank-Check Approvals
Every residential project over 100 units should require a cumulative traffic impact analysis — not just a study of that single project, but an honest assessment of total impact on our roads. Dublin’s residents deserve infrastructure that matches our growth.
“You shouldn't have to leave an hour early just to get across town. Dublin's infrastructure must catch up to Dublin's growth.”
