List of Bay Area Rapid Transit stations


Bay Area Rapid Transit is a heavy rail rapid transit system in the San Francisco Bay Area in California, United States. With average weekday ridership around passengers in, BART is the fifth busiest rapid transit system in the United States. BART is administered by the Bay Area Rapid Transit District, a special district government agency formed by Alameda, Contra Costa, and San Francisco counties.
Mondays through Saturdays, BART trains run on five principal routes; four are transbay routes connecting San Francisco to Oakland and various destinations in the East Bay, while the fifth, the Berryessa/North San José–Richmond line, runs exclusively in the East Bay. Two of the five routes do not run on nights and weekends, and one is truncated on Saturdays, but all stations remain accessible by transfers via other routes. In September 1972 BART's first route opened: Fremont to MacArthur, extended to Richmond in January 1973. Concord to MacArthur started in May 1973 and Montgomery Street to Daly City began in November 1973. The original system was completed in September 1974 when trains first carried passengers through the underwater Transbay Tube. BART's three routes then were Concord–Daly City, Fremont—Daly City and Richmond–Fremont.
The Concord-Daly City line was extended to North Concord/Martinez in 1995 and to Colma and Pittsburg/Bay Point in 1996. BART's fifth route, the Dublin/Pleasanton–Daly City line, began when the branch to Dublin/Pleasanton opened in 1997. The San Mateo County line was extended south from Colma to San Francisco International Airport and Millbrae in 2003. BART passengers can reach Oakland International Airport on BART's new automated guideway transit system, the Coliseum–Oakland International Airport line. The Richmond-Fremont and Fremont-Daly City lines were later extended to Warm Springs/South Fremont in 2017, and then further to Berryessa/North San José in 2020. An extension of BART using diesel multiple unit technology, called BART to Antioch but also known during construction as eBART, opened to Antioch in 2018.
BART has 50 stations: 20 on the surface, 15 elevated, and 15 underground. 22 stations are in Alameda County, 12 are in Contra Costa, and 8 are in San Francisco. 6 stations are in San Mateo County and 2 are in Santa Clara County, though neither county is part of the BART special district. Berryessa/North San José is the southernmost station and Pittsburg/Bay Point is the northernmost., has the highest ridership and has the lowest.

Services

BART operates six named and interlined heavy rail services plus one separate automated guideway line. Five of the heavy rail services run through Oakland, and all of those but the Richmond–Warm Springs/South Fremont line and the SFO–Millbrae shuttle go through the Transbay Tube to San Francisco. All six services run on weekdays until the end of the afternoon rush hour; evenings, nights, and Sundays have as few as three services operating. Three of the services change terminals at certain times so that all stations are served during all service hours. The eastern segment of the line uses different rolling stock and is separated from the rest of the line.
Unlike most other rapid transit and rail systems around the world, BART lines are not primarily referred to by shorthand designations or their color names. The services are mainly identified on maps, schedules, and station signage by the names of their termini. However, the new fleet displays line colors more prominently, and BART has begun to use color names in press releases and GTFS data.

A transfer platform east of, which does not have street access and is not designated as a station, provides cross-platform transfers between the rapid transit and DMU sections of the line.

Future stations

The four-station Phase II of the Silicon Valley BART extension will add underground stations at,, and in San José, plus the surface-level station; it is planned to open in 2029 or 2030. An infill station on the Warm Springs extension at is planned to open in 2026. Two additional infill stations-the surface-level on the Silicon Valley extension and the elevated on the Oakland Airport Connector-are proposed but not yet funded or scheduled. Several of these future stations connect with other rail services in the South Bay region, including Altamont Corridor Express, which does not yet have a connection with BART.
