BART on Sunday schedule for July 4; longer trains for SF fireworks

BART will operate on a Sunday schedule on the Independence Day holiday, Friday, July 4, 2014, with service beginning around 8 am. BART also will run longer trains and add special event trains as needed to accommodate riders attending the fireworks display at San Francisco's Pier 39.

The largest crowds of fireworks-viewers are expected to be using Embarcadero Station, which will have additional staff on hand. The fireworks over Pier 39 are scheduled to begin around 9:30 pm. 

BART will also have longer trains and special event trains serving the Coliseum Station on Thursday July 3rd for the A’s vs Toronto baseball game with fireworks.

Riders are encouraged to buy a roundtrip ticket to avoid lines at ticket machines after events, or to use a Clipper card to avoid ticket machines altogether. Plan your trip using the BART QuickPlanner or check our real-time departures info
