From now through Nov. 16, the following stations will be closed: Vienna and Reamwood in Sunnyvale; Old Ironsides, Great America and Lick Mill in Santa Clara; and Champion in San Jose.
Temporary bus stops will be set up at these locations, VTA said. The closure of the six stations began Oct. 30.

The repair work is part of VTA’s Rail Rehabilitation and Replacement, which is an ongoing program to ensure that the light rail track infrastructure remains safe, reliable and in an enhanced state of good repair.
