Daly City Station
Daly City BART Station is located near the city's border with San Francisco. The station serves as a transfer point for Muni buses to San Francisco State and Stonestown, and SamTrans buses for service into Daly City and San Mateo County.
Part of the original system completed by 1972, it was the only station on the peninsula side with a large park-and-ride lot for many years. Train and passenger congestion at this station prompted efforts to extend the line further south in the 1980s and 90s. It remains the only station in San Mateo County served by all four BART lines crossing the Transbay Tube and is still favored by riders for its frequent service compared to stations further south.
For pedestrian and disabled access to areas west and south of the station, use the pedestrian tunnel just south of the station to cross John Daly Blvd.
