Bay Area Rapid Transit

History
Development and origin
Main article: History of the Bay Area Rapid Transit
Some Bay Area Rapid area coverage of the transit system today was formerly serviced by the tram system and the electrification of trains called key commuter system. This system twentieth century was once a trans-bay traffic through the lower deck of Bay Bridge. The second half of the Decade 1950 the entire system had been dismantled for road travel and car use buses – given the explosive growth of the construction of the road. A new rapid transit system has been proposed to take the place of the key to the system during the late 1940s, and formal planning for which began in the decade 1950. Some funds have been obtained for the BART system in 1959, and construction began a year later. The passenger rail service began in some sections of track in September 1972. BART's new system was welcomed by some authorities as a major step forward in technology underground.
However, questions arise regarding the safety BART system and the considerable expense required to build the BART system. Praise for the new transport system has not been unanimous at first sight.

A recent study shows that, with some roads in the Bay Area, some Bart aerial structures could be severely damaged and could collapse if a major earthquake, which is predicted as most likely occur in the Bay Area over the next 30 years. Extensive seismic upgrade will be necessary examine many of these shortcomings, but one in particular, the penetration of the area of the Hayward Fault in the Berkeley Hills tunnel, will make the correction after of a catastrophic earthquake, with consequences rail transit, its agents and its passengers left to chance.
In May 2004, became the BART transit system first in the country to offer mobile communications for passengers of all mobile operators in its metro trains. This is in contrast with other systems in the United States, who, having cell phone service, it makes it easier for passengers to all major telecom operators in the cell. The service was made available to customers of Verizon Wireless, Sprint / Nextel, AT & T Mobility and T-Mobile and between the four locations in San Francisco Market Street Center Civic Embarcadero. In 2005, coverage was made available between Balboa Park and Mission San 16. In July 2008, the fifth mobile phone network from the Area Bay, MetroPCS, was added. In December 2009, the service was expanded to include the Transbay tube, providing cell phone coverage continues between West Oakland and Balboa Park. The service is expected to add to the center of Oakland, Berkeley and the Berkeley hills tunnel at the end of the third quarter of 2010. Coverage should be added south of San Francisco and San Bruno in 2011. The aim is to provide mobile cellular service and Internet continues throughout the BART system.
As of February 20, 2007 BART agreed to allow logon beta testing Internet access for passengers in the BART system. Initially included four stations in downtown San Francisco Embarcadero, Montgomery, Powell and Civic Center. In To date, more than 30,000 customers use the service. The testing and demonstration also includes more than a test train for the test indicator Hayward Bart. Testing and deployment was extended in the interconnection line between the underground four stations in the center and beyond. The successful demonstration tests provided for a 10-year contract with WiFi Rail, Inc. for services throughout the BART right of way (ROW).
During the month of May 2008 and July 2008, the WiFi service has been expanded to include the Transbay Tube and now awaits the BART cars that have the equipment necessary to receive wireless access network.
From BART mid-1990s, sought to modernize its aging 30 years. The rehabilitation of the fleet over the falls as part of this modernization, today the fire alarm systems, irrigation water, tactile domes yellow, spring, rubber tiles and cement-carpet you are installing. Raw black tiles on the edge of the platform marks the location of the door to board trains, allowing passengers to wait in the right place for the train, instead of waiting until the train gets to where board. All faregates and ATMs have also been replaced.
In the spring of 2007, BART saw a billboard located in the Transbay tube, and when the drivers looking at the windows I saw what looked like a mobile advertisement that has been Reebok "Run Easy" campaign.
On April 10, 2007, BART General Manager Tom Margrid, who was head of BART for eleven years, announced his retirement.
In late May 2007, BART has declared its intention to improve off-peak (night and weekends) intervals for each line only 15 minutes. The current frequency of 20 minutes now is considered a psychological barrier to traffic. June 2007, BART temporarily returned to its position, saying that probably reduced waiting times not due to a deficit of state budget revenues of $ 900,000. However, Bart has finally confirmed the plan on January 1, 2008.
In addition, in June 2007, BART suddenly removed all references to the implementation of TransLink payment system on your website. BART spokesman said Marty Moran (via email) that TransLink can now be applied to and at the end of 2007. Implementation of TransLink on BART was delayed further due to disputes over the treatment of tariffs between MTC and Bart. TransLink is expected to be simultaneous with BART, SF Muni, and Caltrain in the spring of 2008. TransLink is access to May 2009.
As BART celebrated the 50th anniversary of its creation by the Legislature of the State, the organization announced management plans for the next 50 years. His vision includes the addition of a four-tube barrel in the Bay of San Francisco Transbay parallel and south of the existing tunnel and emerging Transbay Terminal Transit to offer shuttle service to Caltrain and proposals for the future of California high speed rail system. The four gauge Bart tunnel would provide two tunnels and two rail tunnels to the classical high speed. Bart plan focuses on improving service and reliability your base system (where the density and attendance is the highest), rather than suburban extensions away. These plans include: a line Transbay Terminal will continue through South-to-Market, north of Van Ness and ending in western San Francisco along the Geary corridor, the Presidio, North Beach or along a line of Interstate 680 corridors, and a fourth set of track through Oakland.
Many changes have been implemented a rail service from January 1, 2008. Among the changes, trains Point Pittsburg / Bay extended its service to the airport of San Francisco-Oakland (SFO airport) station (at all hours of operation), but not until the end of the line Millbrae. (Only a few people the night of Pittsburg / Bay Point Millbrae continued to train after stopping at the SFO airport station). During the week (until 7:00), trains on the Richmond line at the station continues Millbrae, but omits the SFO airport station during the evenings and weekends, trains on the Dublin / Pleasanton continuous line in Millbrae, but omits the station SFO Airport). All this means that there would be no direct rail connection between SFO airport and Millbrae, disturb "Caltrain" passengers who wanted Trip to SFO Airport. BART management ended the direct rail link, citing low ridership between Millbrae and SFO Airport. However, they have timed out transfers to the Gare Saint-Bruno for passengers traveling to SFO Airport in Millbrae.
With budget constraints continue, it is necessary to reduce service Bart Daly City beyond. As of September 14, 2009, the following changes have taken place: Pittsburg / Bay Point line will always end up the week OFS 19:00. After 7:00 pm and all day weekends and holidays, service will extend to Millbrae. The Dublin / Pleasanton line no longer serve to extension, instead of ending up in Daly City station.
In 2008, BART has announced that the introduction of solar energy systems on roofs and patios locomotive maintenance facilities Richmond and Hayward, plus shipping car with solar panels on the roof of the Orinda station. The Board regrets being unable to install them everywhere, but said that Orinda has been the only station with enough sun to make money for the project.
The current
Background
A third rail image entered into the BART system. Note how the third rail instead changes on entering the train station and gateway pass filter of the track. Note the bridge the left side of the path distance, which is the gateway to the emergency runway leading carrier in the Daly City station again, the third rail placed in front of this gateway.
BART has 104 miles (167 km) of track and 43 stations. System uses a controversial 5 feet 6 inches (1676 mm) gauge wide, compared with the August 4, 1912 feet (1,435 mm) standard gauge located mainly in the rail systems in the United States. The transit system in the United States using this indicator. The cars are wider than standard transport equipment, but also wider than passenger trains in northern class America. The disadvantage is that all maintenance and support equipment must be tailored. The trains can reach a top speed of 80 mph centralized control (130 km / h) and provided an average speed of 33 mph the whole system (53 km / h) with a station for the twenty-second downtime (time spent). Trains run a minimum length of three cars California Public Utilities Commission guidelines for a maximum of 10 cars, covering all 700 feet (213 m) length of a platform. The maximum length of 710 feet (216 m), Bart was the longest train of any U.S. metropolitan. The system also includes broad Car of 10.5 feet (3.2 m) (the same width as an Amtrak Metroliner), a maximum slope of four percent and a minimum curve radius of 394 feet (120 m) in the scheme.
The electric current is supplied to a third rail trains, whose position in relation to the context of alternative train. Inside the station, the third lane is still there, in the opposite platform of tourism. This eliminates the danger of a passenger, is falling directly onto the third rail, or ride on it to return to the platform where it falls. On the tracks at ground level, the third rail alternates from one side of the track to another break in the third lane to allow emergency evacuation routes.
subway tunnels, structures and air evacuation tube Transbay corridors and passages have been training to allow evacuation without exposing passengers contact easy, without realizing the third rail, which is located farther from these roads as possible. The tension in the steel third rail is 1000 volts DC, so there system-wide warnings of its passengers to safety. In addition, BART posts warnings on each vehicle and contact the third rail of four paddle-like shoes railways protruding from the bottom of each vehicle by the wheels of trucks to rail. Other third-rail metro propelled the United States use a higher stress low.
Many of the original 1970 years the system of time BART stations, especially stations air, simple function of brutalist architecture.
Attendance levels
user records have been ongoing at the regional level in the field events, such as the San Francisco Gay Pride Parade. Archives Sunday included a record of 224 500, which coincided with a baseball game the Oakland Athletics and a record of 405,400 set during the week of September 8 October 2008, when the two San Francisco Giants and Oakland Raiders have home games. A record of the week by number of passengers was 2.3178 million between June 23 and June 29, 2008. This beat all the previous time 2.3018 million realized during the closure of Bay Bridge. BART has established an absolute record for a day of 442.000 rounds, Thursday, October 29 2009, after the close of the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge due to lack of repair of the structure.
Problems with the Segway on BART
After several incidents high profile and include Segways, including one incident where a Segway was crushed by a train after falling on the track rail, BART barred for 45 days until they can regroup and launch a plan to mediate the issue. Sunny The consensus was the imposition of rules similar to the bike in the Segway declined during the hours of travel, with the exception of disability and that the devices could not be installed on doors or similar price to the rules for all devices with wheels skates and scooters. In addition, a permit system was implemented must be registered for use in the system.
Roads
All roads around the city of Oakland, and all, but Fremont Richmond the way through San Francisco Transbay Tube and beyond in Daly City. Most segments BART system trains carry more than one route.
Trains run regularly in five lines. Unlike most other transport modes Quick and rail systems around the world, the lines BART usually not covered by shorthand names. Although the lines have been consistent in color maps of the BART system for over a decade, rarely mentioned the names of official colors, and very rarely reported that way by members of the public (for example, the "Red Line").
In Instead, the five BART lines are usually shown on maps and lists the name of your terminal:
Fremont Daly City, following a former railroad right track for the Western Pacific to Oakland Fremont operates Monday to Saturday during the day until late.
Dublin / Pleasanton Daly City, following Interstate-580 through Castro Valley to San Leandro, where it meets the line from Fremont, Richmond, continuing in San Francisco.
Pittsburg / Bay Point SFO / Millbrae, after RS4, a former Sacramento Northern Railroad right of way and SR 24 from Bay Point to Oakland, and extends beyond Daly City to San Francisco International Airport. In the afternoons and late week, this line passes through the airport will Millbrae.
Richmond Daly City / Millbrae, according to a former Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway right of way Richmond, Berkeley, and extends beyond Millbrae Daly City Monday to Friday during the day until late. On Saturday, the line operates in Daly City.
Richmond Fremont, coinciding with the line of Richmond and Fremont Millbrae Daly City line between the terminal and Oakland, and runs every day.
The line of San Francisco through Daly City Millbrae follows an old right of way south of the Pacific Railway, which is also served by Caltrain San Bruno Beyond.
Schedule
The BART system consists of five lines, but most of the network is more than one line on the same track. The trains ran on each line historically every fifteen minutes during the week and twenty minutes during nights, weekends and holidays, but in a particular station can be served by more than four lines, may have service as often as every three or four minutes. However, the system is closed for four hours each night for maintenance, the reopening at 4:00 every morning except Sunday.
On January 1, 2008, service in each line is at intervals of 15 minutes except Saturdays 6:00 to 19:00, when the service is every 20 minutes. In addition, from January 1, 2008, BART began operating around 4:00 Monday to Friday from 6.00am on Saturday, and 8:00 Sunday. Service every day ends at midnight with the closing scheduled for the last train station to the station. Two of the five lines, and SF Millbraeichmond / Daly Cityremont lines, not at night (after 7:00) or Sunday service, but all stations are accessible transfer to other lines. Nuit Blanche in the network services available when Bart is closed. All but six BART stations are served (eight Caltrain stations). BART tickets are not accepted on these buses, and each of the four bus systems to charge their own fees, which can reach $ 3.50 per trip system of four can cost as little as $ 9.50 in 2007.
Rates
ATMs in the Powell Street station
Rates are comparable to those BART and commuter rail systems are higher than those of most of meters, especially for long trips. The fee is based on a formula that takes into account both the length and speed of travel. A surcharge is added to travel through Transbay Tube, San Francisco International Airport, or through San Mateo County, which is not a member of BART. Historically and until recently, passengers have used rechargeable Ticket paper-plastic-compound, in which tariffs are stored via a magnetic strip, to enter and exit the system (like a ribbon ticketing system used in the Washington Metro in Washington, DC). Faregate output prints the remaining balance on the ticket each time the station exit of passengers. A paper ticket can be fill an ATM, the balance of the entries can be applied to purchase a new card or simply captured by the exit door when the balance reaches zero, a number low-value cards can be combined to create one more card great value, but only in exchange for specific entries are some BART stations. BART relies on the values of unused tickets, especially the leaders reported low-value cards as a source of income, came to some to be as high as $ 9.9 million.
A BART ticket at the normal rate. Initial Notice purchased fare printed parallel to the magnetic tape, and the balance of the card printed on the left, updated at each exit. Imagery of old notes, a blue ticket with a new style, and tickets to other colors can be found here.
One of stored value smart card fare system, TransLink smart card called, has been deployed in the fall of 2009. This program has been released to the public in autumn 2006, with the deployment of AC Transit, Dumbarton Express and Golden Gate Transit lines. And promoted BART EZ Rider card, a pilot program that uses technology similar design to the TransLink card. Both cards are contactless smart, and contain the stored value that can be used as payment of fare. BART contract with Cubic Transportation Systems to replace all those of faregates smart card readers installed in nature. The EZ Rider program is expected to last until September 2010.
BART minimum rate of $ 1.75 is charged for travel in June miles (9.7 km) as a journey between two adjacent stations Berkeley. The maximum rate of one way, including all supplements available is $ 10.90, 51 miles (82 km) trip between Pittsburgh Point / Bay and San Francisco International Airport. The farthest trip Pittsburg / Bay Point to Millbrae, cheaper due to charge added to the cost of travel from the airport. Passengers without tickets enough to complete their journey AddFare must use a machine to pay the balance out of the station. Due the amount of base rate, travel between BART stations in downtown San Francisco on BART costs 25 cents less than they need to clean the drive train to the city light MUNI Metro, which tends to be slower in covering the same distance. However, about MUNI permits two full hours of riding, including transfers other vehicles MUNI, BART, while charges $ 1.75 for a single trip. There are quirks in the system of prices due to subsidies provided to certain travel corridors between remote stations. For example, for a tour of Dublin / Pleasanton to Fremont, it's cheaper to leave the station at the point of transfer, Bay Fair, and to restore station, rather than remain on the platform as it would have taken two basic types $ 1.75 instead of $ 4.35 a ticket from one extreme to extreme.
BART uses a system of five different colored tickets for regular price, special price, reduced price and to select groups as follows:
Blue General Notes: The most common type, includes valuable discount tickets
Red notes and Disabled children 4-12 years: 62.5% discount, the identity requires a special (children under 4 travel free)
Green tickets people 65 years and over: 62.5% discount, proof of age for purchase
Orange tickets for students: people, limited use tickets 50% discount for 13-18 students currently enrolled in secondary or middle school
Flash BART Plus Ticket special value with a high "pass" privileges with the relevant regional transit, including MUNI buses.
A new EZ Rider fare Plastic SMART program that eventually will be replaced by the Phase II program TransLink
EZ Rider Card Rates
Unlike most systems transit in the United States has not unlimited and available Hocus BART riders must pay for each trip they take. The discount offered to the public is not a reduction 6.25% in "high-value tickets" are purchased with the values and costs $ 48 and $ 64 for the price of 45 and $ 60 respectively. Amtrak Corridor Trains Capitol San Joaquin sell tickets on board $ 10 BART cars CAF for only $ 8, resulting in a 20% reduction. A discount of 62.5% is provided the elderly, disabled and children aged 5-12 years. Middle school students May 13 to 18 get a 50% discount if your school participates in BART, but these inputs are intended for use only between the docking station and school students and the railway station for transportation to and from school events. However, these limitations do not apply to in any way and students should behave on the honor system. Tickets are available only during the week, rate restrictions applied through the doors. BART Plus tickets with a travel voucher for the last time that if the residual value is above $ 0.05, the ticket can be Use one last time for a trip away. Most special discount tickets must be purchased from selected suppliers not to ATMs. More Bart Tickets are available at ATMs. In particular, tickets intermediate and secondary schools are usually sold in the schools.
Relatives BART BART employees receive free passes and wrinkles may care to present your photo ID and employee of the BART station. Employees of airlines who take BART to work in San Francisco International Airport enjoy a discount of 25%, but non-airline employees who are even decreasing.

The rates applied by the station agent, which monitors activity on the side price gateway of the window and through other doors closed and TV screens rates faregate been in the cab of the agent. All stations are equipped with at least one agent at any time. Despite this fraud charges, is produced from time to time, often due to people entering and leaving through gate parts that are permitted for non-emergence of passengers with bicycles, wheelchairs, and luggage transport. It also occurs with the lifts, which result in certain offices in the region Tickets unticketed area.
There is little coordination between BART and the prices of surrounding agencies. Some agencies accept BART Plus pass, which, at a price between $ 38 and $ 71 per month, will pass holders to use BART and buses. In particular, AC Transit has left the program due to low amount of reimbursement they received from Bart. Another program coordination licensed adult monthly pass San Francisco Municipal Railway ride BART trains in the city of San Francisco for free (no credit used for travel outside the city). The city of San Francisco BART pays $ 0.87 for each trip made under this agreement. For riders who do not have these cards, there is usually a symbolic ($ 0.25 $ 0.50) A train passengers transfer to other modes of transport. The Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority, BART is a credit transfer to a local fare credit ($ 0.50 to $ 1.75) to 120, 140, 180 and 181 express routes Cross County leaving the Fremont BART station, but all the drivers required to land Santa Clara County. No credit applied during journeys to the Fremont BART station.
Proposals to simplify the tariff structure abound. At one end, a rate that does not take into account the distance was proposed by Bart, Joel Keller. The least extreme involves the establishment of implementation of a simplified structure that would create bands or rate zones. The implementation of each plan to lower the use rates based on distance and change the rate of recovery of the cargo box for urban riders in San Francisco, Oakland and Berkeley, and away from the suburbs of runners Contra Costa del Este, southern Alameda and San Mateo, where the density is lower and, consequently, operating costs are higher.
Connection Services
AC Transit bus stop at the station of the Bay Fair
BART has direct connections to two regional rail Postal Service, which provides a service between San Francisco, San Jose and Gilroy, Millbrae station, and Amtrak Capitol Corridor, which stretches from Sacramento to San Jose, Richmond and Coliseum / Oakland Station Airport. A third Capitol Corridor connection at Union Station in the city is planned as part of a broad Dumbarton Rail Corridor Project to connect Union City, Fremont and Newark different fate of the peninsula across the Dumbarton railroad bridge. BART is the body of the Capitol Corridor Management until 2010.
BART connects San Francisco to local light rail system, the Muni Metro. The upper channel level meters Bart Market Street, originally designed for the lines in Marin County, [Edit] was presented to two organizations share the Embarcadero Muni, Montgomery Street, Powell and Civic Center stations. Some contact Muni Metro lines with (or passing nearby), the BART system in Balboa Park and Glen Park stations.
Other services connect to BART, including Emery Go Round (Emeryville) WestCAT (north-west Contra Costa County), Benicia Transit (Benicia), Transit Union City (Union City) and Valley Transportation Authority Santa Clara (VTA, in Silicon Valley).
Carsharing BART to guests at many stations, a program launched by the City CarShare. Bart riders may transfer and complete their journeys by car. BART began providing airport parking long term through a third party vendor to most of the stations of the Bay. Passengers must make reservations online in advance and pay the daily rate of $ 5 before they can leave their cars at BART.
Casual carpooling is formed in the North Berkeley station and surrounding area the town of El Cerrito Del Norte. The lots are suitable for most travelers to use public transport to their final destination. However, because of how BART parking fee, passengers can park in the parks of most BART without having to pay a fee.
Connecting bus services
A few of bus services connect to BART, which, though managed by separate agencies, are part of the system. The main suppliers are San Francisco Municipal Railway (Muni), Alameda, Contra Costa Transit (AC Transit), San Mateo County Transit District (SamTrans) Central Authority of Contra Costa Transit (Connection County), and the Golden Gate Bridge, Highway and Transportation Regional (Golden Gate Transit). Until 1997, BART had its own "BART Express bus connector, which was place in eastern Alameda County and the Far East and the West Contra Costa County, these routes were created then in the sub-regional transportation agencies such as Tri-Delta and the Valley Livermore Amador Transit Transit Authority (Wheels) or, in the case of Dublin / Pleasanton service, replaced by a total extension of BART.
BART is connected the Oakland International Airport via shuttle airbart that bring passengers to and from the Coliseum / Airport BART station in Oakland. These buses are operated Bart and accept change just BART fare card, as well as the exact change. BART also connects with the San Francisco International Airport, but in this case the train from the airport, in fact, direct transfer is not necessary, although the AirTrain connections are available for those unable or from the International Terminal.
The bus service connecting the University of California, Berkeley Berkeley BART station of the old Humphrey GB-Bart, a spoonerism of famous actor Humphrey Bogart. From He has been replaced by a series of regular bus routes and bus AC Transit operated by the university.
Organization and Management
Governance
San Francisco Bay Area Rapid Transit District is a governmental agency created by the state of California is special in Alameda County, Contra Costa County, and City and County of San Francisco. San Mateo County, home to six BART stations not part of the BART district. It is governed by a Board of Directors of each of the nine directors chosen to represent a specific geographic area within the BART district. BART has its own police.
While the district includes all cities and communities in its territory, some of these cities do not have stations on the BART system. This has caused tensions between the owners in cities such as Livermore taxpayers, but Bart must travel out of town for BART service. In areas such as Fremont, most travelers do not commute in the direction it would take BART (travel Fremonters many San Jose, where there is currently no BART service). This would be mitigated with the completion of an extension project, BART-San Jose.
However, some cities and towns are fairly close to cities with BART station residents traveling by bus or car to the nearby BART station. Emeryville, for example, BART does not have service, but has a free shuttle service, Emery-Go-Round which takes passengers to the station, near MacArthur in Oakland. In addition, Albany has BART station itself. City residents can go or North Berkeley (In Alameda County) or El Cerrito Plaza (Contra Costa County) stations. For those who wish to use their vehicles to the stations, the plaza, many BART stations offer many types of parking options.
Budget
In 2005, BART requested nearly $ 300 million in funds after fees. About 37% of the cost went to the interview, 29% of the actual transport operations, 24% for administration Overall, 8% to police, and 4% for construction and engineering. In 2005, 53% of the budget comes from fees, taxes on 32% and 15% compared with other sources, including advertising, leasing the retail space station, and parking. Bart housing recovery report 53% is relatively high for a U.S. transit over such long distances at high frequency (in comparison, see the section on the recovery of proceeds of transportation).

BART operates four types of cars, built from three different orders, a total of 669 cars.
For run a normal movement of the morning rush hour, BART requires 579 cars. Of these, 541 are planned to be in active service, the remaining 38 are used to build four sets of parts (essential for maintaining service time). At any time, 90 other cars are in repair, maintenance or any work proposed amendment.
Cars A and B cars were built from 1968 to 1971 by Rohr Industries, an aerospace manufacturing company that recently made its foray into the manufacture of transport equipment, which has not designed the space age techniques. The cars were designed as a leader or the car only end with an equipment operator housing fiberglass cabin communication system bidirectional Bart train. For cars are distinguished by their advanced aerodynamics extending 5 feet (1.52 m) longer than their brothers and sisters BC-car. A car can accommodate 72 passengers, and crush load, 150 passengers. Car Cabin B, and operators not used in the center of trains transporting passengers only, the capacity of passenger cars as the vehicles B A. Currently, BART operates 59 cars and 380 cars AB. BART delivery remained effectively unchanged throughout its history.
The cars were built by Alstom C between 1987 and 1989. The cars have a booth operator fiber of C glass and similar control and communication as a car, but unlike cars Unless, the aerodynamic design of the nose, allowing them to be used as car half-size too. The twin objectives of C can change the size of the fastest cars in the train without having to move the train yard. C car can comfortably accommodate 64 (4 places have been lost since the A / B, by removing a row of car seats to accommodate the operator's cab and the four additional seats were lost the elimination of a couple of seats near the front door on the left side of space for wheelchairs) and crush load capacity of 150 passengers. The last command Morrison-Knudsen (now Washington Group International), C2 was for cars that are essentially the same as C cars, but it has an update, the third generation interior with a blue / gray model, unlike the previous blue and brown. Surveillance cameras in cars are also C2 triangular with respect to the rectangular shape of the camera C1 in a car.

C2 car that comfortably seats 68 passengers (eg folding), and the burden of crushing can carry 150 passengers. Since the purchase of C2, the original C cars are also known as C1 car. Currently, BART operates 150 cars and 80 cars C2 C1.
In 1995, a BART contract with Adtranz (acquired by Bombardier Transportation in 2001) for the renewal and revision of the A 439 and the original cars Rohr-B, the update of ancient vintage brown cloth seats with polyurethane seats less toxic and easier to clean, light blue in use today and bring the cars in general, the same level of detail inside the fleet of C2. The cars were rebuilt Rohr also ADtranz phase alternating current (AC) traction motors Investor IGBT, model 1507C. The proposed seven years was completed in 2002. All BART cars have upholstered seats and almost all cars are carpeted, except for some C1 and / or C2 cars. Because one of the original design goals was for all BART riders to sit, vintage cars and bars are less provisions for standing passengers. Jump seats (Found in cars C2) were excluded from the renewal (reducing seating capacity of 72 68), to provide designated areas for luggage, wheelchairs and bicycles. Consequently, the original C (or C1), the cars are the oldest interior design, because they have not been renovated and have not recently purchased enough to have the "new convenience features, for example, lack of support vertical bars in the center of the car and not put red lights to warn to close the doors. However, the carpet in most cars C1 was replaced by an anti-experimental compound in the ground after passengers complained that the Cars were unclean.
The A, B, C, and the cars were all three-digit figures in the beginning, but when 1000 has been renovated added to the number of individuals A / B cars (cars, for example, 633 becomes 1633). The cars are numbered 2500 in the series C2, the C / C1 cars still have a 3-digit number.
Before reconstruction, direct current (DC) traction motors used in the 439 BART cars were built by Westinghouse Rohr, the same company who also built the system of automatic train control Bart. The drive motor is switched Westinghouse Model 1463 orders. Westinghouse DC motors continuous Alstom are also used in C (C1) and C2 vehicles Morrison-Knudsen. Engines have been removed from the car Rohr during rehabilitation were selected as engines parts for the vehicles C1 and C2. traction others also built by Westinghouse in the 439 BART cars Rohr before rehabilitation is the auxiliary power box, hydraulic pump for brakes, suspension and control systems for the brakes (which were part of the basis of the logic unit that is mounted in the semi-conductor control switch). The cooling system in BART cars Rohr before rehabilitation were built by Thermo King, where she was a subsidiary Westinghouse (Thermo King is now a subsidiary of Ingersoll-Rand). HVAC systems are built on the restored Rohr Gen 1 cars were built by Westcode.
Comparison with other rail systems
Main article: Rapid Transit
BART, as transit systems in the same time, tried to connect to employment centers near Oakland and San Francisco for the construction of parallel lines that travel the routes established highway system in the region. Most of the service area of Bart, measured by the percentage of the length of the system consists of low-density suburbs. Unlike the New York subway or London Underground, the various BART lines were not designed to provide frequent service premises, as evidenced by the current system of advance to the highest attainable standard of 13.33 minutes per line through the section Gateway Quad. Muni light rail offers local and metropolitan in the city limits of San Francisco and works with small spacing is BART. BART could many ways is considered a commuter station, "because it has many characteristics of a suburban train system, including long lines that extend to the edges of the suburbs of the large distances between most adjacent stations. However, in urban areas of San Francisco and downtown Oakland, converge more lines, and the child takes the characteristics of an urban subway system, including short intervals and transfer opportunities to other lines.
BART could be considered more like a regional passenger train service, as the S-Bahn Berlin and Paris RER. However, BART also has all the qualities and network services, Metro including propulsion electrified third rail, the exclusive right unevenly frequent intervals in their service areas of the city, and access prepaid chip cards. urban stations are closer to half a mile (800 m) apart and have combined two and half years of service intervals of five minutes peak hours. These factors contribute to the consideration of a suburban metro BART-hybrid, working as a metropolitan area network in the central business district of San Francisco, Oakland and Berkeley, and commuter trains in suburban areas of the region.
Future values
A graphical representation of what the new car BART will look like.
For faster service, BART is preparing to introduce new vehicles, three doors. BART plans to start buying new cars in 2010, when he has paid his debt to capital of the runway and the car another job with the cars reaching top 10 drivers to test in 2014. The program will 200 cars with two basic options orders additional 250 cars each for a total of 700 vehicles to replace the original fleet. All 700 cars must arrive before 2024. There are two options, one to the general expansion of the Park and the other for the expansion of San Jose, with 150 cars each. If all options are exercised, the total number of new vehicles from 1000 BART cars.
Future expansion and extension
Main article: Bay Area, Rapid expansion Transit
Expansion plans Bay Area Rapid Transit have existed since the beginning of the project. These projects include the Hot Springs area, the expansion San Jose Airport Oakland Connector eBART, "tBART: I-580/Tri-Valley Corridor, wBART: Contra Costa I-80/West corridor, and many service stations along the route.
