It's not just BART. Our partners @SFMTA_Muni in San Francisco and all Bay Area transit agencies face the fiscal cliff in different timelines.

90% of all transfer trips in the Bay Area involve a connection with BART to take people where they need to go. https://t.co/8PrQLbbyaA -
It's also just not BART riders. It impacts all who move through and around the Bay Area, including those who need to drive or choose to drive over taking public transit.

It's not just Downtown San Francisco who need public transit to revitalize. It's all downtowns and neighborhoods BART serves or is served by Muni in San Francisco, AC Transit in Oakland, or VTA in San Jose, among others, throughout the Bay Area. pic.twitter.com/aLroCoImSX

Starting in September, BART will roll out a new service plan to increase trains on weekends & nights. No rider will wait more than 20 mins for a scheduled train at any time.
