Dear City of San Bernardino Transportation / Public Works Department,
I am writing as a resident and Metrolink rider to respectfully suggest allowing overnight
parking in the new parking structure at the San Bernardino Depot Station.
Currently, riders from San Bernardino who wish to take Metrolink to Orange County or Los
Angeles for overnight trips face a challenge, as there is no clear policy or option for leaving a
vehicle overnight. By permitting secure overnight parking, the City would make it easier for
residents to use Metrolink for multi-day trips, reduce long-distance driving on our freeways,
and further support the City’s investment in sustainable transportation.
Many neighboring Metrolink stations in Southern California offer overnight parking, and
having this option at San Bernardino Depot would encourage greater ridership and
convenience for local residents.
I greatly appreciate the City’s ongoing investment in public transit facilities and hope this
suggestion can be considered as part of future parking policy at the Depot.
Thank you for your time and for your continued support of San Bernardino’s role as a regional
transportation hub.
Sincerely,
RJ
