Please join the San Francisco Bay Area Rapid Transit District (BART) as it seeks input on two critical issues. Below are meeting dates open to the public. Translation services and child care are available if requested 72 hours prior to the meeting. Refreshments will be served.

If you are unable to attend one of the community meetings, you can also give feedback by completing a short online survey.

Topics for this series of meetings include:

Temporary Fare Reduction Options
BART has a surplus for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2010 due to funds unexpectedly received from the State of California. BART is considering an idea for how to use these funds to show our appreciation for our riders, which is to implement a temporary reduction. This is your chance to weigh in on a fare reduction option. Attend this meeting to hear proposals and provide your own input. Your ideas will be considered by BART’s Board of Directors.

Defining "Major Service Changes"
In accordance with federal guidelines, BART is seeking public input in defining what constitutes a “major service change.” Attend this meeting for an opportunity to contribute your voice to developing this definition.
