The North Concord/Martinez station opened on December 16, 1995. It served as the terminal station of the line until December 7, 1996, when the extension over Willow Pass to Pittsburg/Bay Point station opened.[1]
The station briefly served as the terminus again from March 16–21, 2016 (and at off-peak times until April 2) after electrical issues north of the station damaged a number of trains.[3][4]
Sandwiched between low-density residential areas to the west and the Concord Naval Weapons Station to the east, the station has low ridership despite the 2003 addition of rush-hour short turn trains.[5] As of September 2019[update], North Concord/Martinez had the third-lowest ridership in the system; only the 2014-opened Oakland International Airport station and 2018-opened Pittsburg Center station were less used.[2] A 2018 study recommended a footbridge over the BART tracks south of the station to improve access from the adjacent neighborhood.[6]
The station is served by County Connection bus routes 17, 28, and 99X plus school route 627, all of which stop on the east side of the station.[7]
