Celebrating National Transit Employee Appreciation Day!
Give a wave and words of thanks to BART employees you see today – it's National Transit Employee Appreciation Day!
Every year on March 18, public transit agencies across the nation celebrate the amazing work forces that keep us moving, our economies humming, and our air clean. It's a big job moving the Bay Area, and BART's employees do it with dedication, care and moxie. We appreciate them and hope you do to.
We asked some of our riders to share a message to our employees – hear from them in the video in this article.
On this notable day, BART invites the public to share their gratitude for hardworking transit employees. They appreciate knowing you value them. So, if you’re traveling on transit today, take a moment to say “thanks” to the staff who make your trip possible. A smile or wave goes a long way, too!
Additionally, keep an eye out for signs of gratitude in our stations, including some of our employees featured on posters in station agent booths, and listen for a special PA announcement recorded by BART General Manager Bob Powers.
We can't express enough gratitude to our employees, who are working hard every day to provide high-quality train service to our customers.
And the proof is in the pudding: Last quarter, we elevated our overall customer satisfaction rating to 81%, an increase of 7% from the previous quarter. This is the first time since 2012 that our customer satisfaction rating has broken the 80s! We have our employees to thank for that.
Thank you, BART staff and all the transit employees across the nation. This day is for you!
