BART is a hybrid--that is west of the hills,it is a relatively normal subway serving ever more densely populated areas. East of the hills the stations are farther apart, and rarely used for local trips. Decades ago when the Contra Costa Times ran a whining commentary claiming the County was underrepresented on the BOD. My reply was that although the County had many residents, that if representation on the BOD were based on ridership, they would lose another seat. At the timethe only station in CCC with very high ridership was El Cerrito Del Norte which llike unto PAGWB hosts buses from multiple out of county areas across the SF Bay/Sacramento/San Joaquin Delta waterway. At the same time CCC also had 2 of the leastused stations.Post covid, with WFH the suburbanites who used to flood the financial district on rush hour sardined out trains have evaporated. There is some vestigial rush hour commuting from further out, but mostly BART's ridership recovery has been moreevenly spread--standees at 10PM leaving SF despitethe fear mongering from anti-transit media BS. |
