Comments on Louda's review of BART
Description: Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) Richmond Line, Colma Line, Fremont Line, and Dublin / Pleasanton Line.
stops at midnight... need i say more?
i am a huge advocate of public transportation,and i understand the importance of making the system efficient and profitable, but BART needs to rethink the way it runs its system. the trains are nice, the stations are nice, and its a cozy ride. its mostly on time barring any major computer problem or incident. for the most part, its pretty great. my major issues are cost and closing time. i am one of few people who regularly make my way across the pond to visit friends and family, but its painful to pay $4+ one way to do this. on the other side of that, i frequently have friends coming to visit me in SF, but i know there's a hard cut off time so they don't miss the last train. how are people supposed to be dependent on public transportation if they're left stranded on either side of the bay? also, weekends and evenings, the trains are few and far between. if they give people easy access, cheap rides and day/night long trains, maybe we can get more people out of their cars.
