History

 
Protesters after the 2009 police shooting of Oscar Grant

Service at the station began on September 11, 1972.[2] The redevelopment of the immediate station area from a parking lot to a mixed-use "transit village" has served as a model for transit-oriented development planning elsewhere in the Bay Area.[3]

On January 1, 2009, a BART police officer fatally shot an unarmed man, Oscar Grant III, at Fruitvale station while responding to reports of a fight on a train.[4][5] Grant's death sparked several protests in Oakland, and was one of several police killings that contributed to the nationwide Black Lives Matter movement.[6][7] Fruitvale Station, a film about the killing, was released in 2013.

Tempo bus rapid transit service on International Boulevard began on August 9, 2020. The line's Fruitvale station is located about 600 feet (180 m) northeast of the BART station.
