    Add public transit? BART is going broke because no one wants to ride the public transit they already have. They’ll be shutting down stations unless their new sales tax passes.

      Public transit shouldn’t be expected to turn a profit or even break even. We don’t expect public schools, highways, or fire departments to break even. Why should BART? It’s a public service.
