MBS Engineering Works On BART

​MBS Engineering is performing work at BART Hayward Maintenance located on 150 Sandoval Way in Hayward, CA. This BART facility helps to clean, maintain and service the trains that transport Bay Area citizens day in and day out. MBS, after performing a leak detection survey of the property, discovered that the gas infrastructure at the maintenance facility was past due for an upgrade, and in rough shape. After installing a temporary, above ground bypass to temporarily supply gas to the facility, MBS received the contract to make a permanent long term gas line installation.
 
Using a combination of gas line slitting, open trench and some mechanical piping over rooftops, MBS was able to complete this project in a timely manner, ensuring that all piping was installed to the highest standards and procedures. The total pipe installed tallied up to 2700 LF, as well as installing new gas regulators and manual shut-off valves at each of the 6 buildings as well as a new seismic shut-off valve at the main meter. MBS accommodated BART’s strict schedule and even worked nights and weekends to complete the job.
