BART says whether those changes happen will depend largely on the public's interest. Here's how to participate in their survey:
"What happens during all seven days now, is we go from a five-line service during the day the early evening at 9 p.m., it goes to three lines service," said BART Spokesperson Chris Filippi, "So one of the interesting possibilities here is a chance to expand that evening service and to have more Transbay trips."
Filippi says in order to do that, they would look at adding a portion of the red line from Richmond to Daly City that would continue past 9 p.m. and also a portion of the green line from Bay Fair to Daly City. "That would be a big thing for folks that work swing shift," Filippi said, "That's something that we've seen during the pandemic, especially for folks going to downtown San Francisco and downtown Oakland, working at bars and restaurants."
BART is still working to recover ridership following the pandemic. October of 2022's ridership was atWith that in mind, ABC7 asked where the funding for any potential service expansions would come from.BART says they're looking at different options but that nothing has been finalized yet. "A key part of getting that funding is having a clear roadmap and knowing what our riders want us to do," Filippi said, "So this is an important step in that process. When we talk to lawmakers, this is something that they want to hear, they want to know that our riders are on board with this."
