For a bart station that's a little off the grid (not travelled to as much as others as it's on the end of possibly the longest service line) it's cleanliness, standard features and architecture are up there with the best and thankfully isn't saturated with unsightly graffiti. Worth a visit.
I'm truly impressed with BART's existing service, and I can't help but envision the enormous potential for extending the Yellow Line further from Pittsburg/Bay Pointe and Antioch. The current system is fantastic, but the idea of connecting even more communities is exciting.
A proposal to have the Yellow Line continue seamlessly from Bay Pointe to Antioch without a light rail section makes perfect sense. This would ensure consistency in the infrastructure and enhance the overall efficiency of the network. Moreover, the thought of extending the Yellow Line beyond Antioch is also a game-changer.
Adding new stations like Brentwood, Mountain House, Tracy, East Tracy, and Carbona to the BART network would be a tremendous benefit to these communities. The convenience of having BART service in these areas would undoubtedly reduce traffic congestion and provide more transportation options for residents.
The idea of placing the East Tracy station along S Chrisman Rd and the Carbona station next to Altamonte Commuter Express's Tracy station along W Linne Rd could serve commuters effectively.
Additionally, a proposed loop back to Mountain House for the return journey back to SFO could maximize connectivity, efficiency, and accessibility.
In summary, I believe that extending BART's Yellow Line in this manner would be a fantastic move. It demonstrates a commitment to improving public transportation and connectivity in the Bay Area. I hope to see such an expansion plan come to fruition.
Normal Bart station that’s been around for many years. Lots of parking spaces available and frequent trains arriving. The facility is pretty worn down and old, but still is perfectly functional. There are often homeless people and police nearby as well
