BART RAIL TRANSIT SYSTEM BEGINS OPERATION

In September 1972 the first line of the $1.4 billion San Francisco Bay Area
Rapid Transit District (BART) system was opened to revenue service. The 75
mile, 38 station commuter rail system is the first new concept in big city
rapid transit in half a century. BART is notable in many ways, among them
its: 3.6 mile Trans-Bay Tube, up to 130 ft below the surface of San
Francisco Bay; 25 miles of line on aerial structure; automatic train
operation; automatic fare collection. BART will be a major test of whether
car-happy Americans can be induced to switch to transit, thus relieving
congestion and pollution problems.
