These transportation links will allow Brentwood to take full advantage – for the first time ever – of its strategic location and its ability to access four regional trade areas: the Bay Area, Tri-Valley, Sacramento Delta, and Central Valley. “On May 19, 2012, Brentwood officials celebrated the completion of one of the most aggressive downtown revitalization projects in the entire Bay Area. Downtown Brentwood is the region’s only true authentic, historic, culturally active downtown, with over 75,000 square feet of fine dining, eclectic boutiques, and entertainment. The downtown also features a year-round schedule of fun activities and events, from to the annual Art, Wine & Jazz Festival, to the summer concert series in City Park, to the award-winning weekly Farmers’ Market. To the west of Brentwood, California State Route 4 (SR 4) is being widened from four to eight lanes. As a result, the off-peak drive time between Walnut Creek and Brentwood will be reduced to as little as 25 minutes. Also, construction is starting on a new interchange at Sand Creek Road this year and will be completed in 2014, providing improved access to businesses along SR 4 in Brentwood. In addition, BART is currently building the extension of eBART to the Hillcrest Station, located about 10 minutes northwest of Brentwood. When the station is completed in 2016, Brentwood businesses and residents will be able to easily access the entire BART system. BART is also pursuing plans to further extend eBART to central Brentwood, although those plans are still at the conceptual stage. To the south, Vasco Road has been improved to shorten the drive time between Brentwood and Livermore to about 25 minutes. This allows Brentwood businesses to have convenient access to I-580 and the entire Tri-Valley region. To the north, California Route 160 is being improved, which will greatly improve Brentwood’s convenient access to Sacramento and the Delta Region. Construction is planned to start in 2014 and be completed in early 2016. While all of the above-mentioned projects are either completed or set to be complete in the next four years, there are additional transportation improvements that are envisioned for the future.

It is an architectural icon that will play an important role in the continued revitalization of the downtown,” said City Manager Paul Eldredge. “We are proud to report that the buildings were completed on schedule and within budget.” The Civic Center complex features Spanish-style architecture with arches and large windows that make use of daylight, requiring less electricity. The building is currently a candidate to receive LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certification. LEED certification provides independent, third-party verification that the building was designed and built to achieve high performance in key areas of human and environmental health including sustainable site development, water savings, energy efficiency, materials selection and indoor environmental quality.
