BART no longer runs trains at reduced speed during the rain!

BART crews updated the train car braking profile software and made slight changes to train speeds at specific locations with a longitudinal slope and where data showed cars were experiencing high rates of wheel flats.

/r/bayarea noticed that @bart.gov is no longer "running trains at slower speeds due to wet weather!" I had been taking for granted that trains have been running well in the rain this season.

As we leap into the new year, we’re taking the time to reflect on the stories that moved us this past year.

From chance encounters to behind-the-scenes heroes, these stories reflect what makes BART so much more than a mode of transportation.

Time for a super long thread, strap in riders! 👇

📢NYE is coming up fast and BARTy is here to remind riders about Tap and Ride!

You can now pay for BART at the fare gates using contactless credit and debit cards, as well as Apple Pay and Google Pay.

It is a timesaver as you head out for New Year’s Eve. Zero registration or setup is required!

New Year's Eve is right around the corner! Remember, you no longer need a Clipper card to ride BART and other agencies in the Bay Area.

Tap and Ride gives riders the option to pay for BART at the fare gates using contactless credit and debit cards, as well as Apple Pay and Google Pay.

Let's hear it for the North Concord/Martinez BART station!!!

The Yellow Line hub turned 30 last Tuesday.

When it opened on December 16, 1995 it was first new station to open in the BART system since the Embarcadero Station opened for passenger service in 1976.
