Riding BART

At the station, you need to buy a BART ticket from a BART ticket machine. You will keep that ticket throughout your trip on BART.

Proceed through the BART faregates with your ticket.

Look for overhead signs and walk to the platform that is served by your train.

On the platform, board the train that goes to your station. The overhead electronic signs on the platform will show the destination, not line color, of the trains as they arrive. The train operator may also announce the destination of the train.

On the train, the train operator will announce the next station just before arrival. The train will stop and open doors at every station along the line.

Once you get to the destination station, exit the BART faregates with your ticket.
