BART has reinstated the mask mandate that expired on July 18th. The mask mandate will be in effect until Oct. 1st. The policy requires all riders to wear masks that cover the nose and mouth. Free masks are available at station agent booths and from all safety staff for those who need one. Children ages two and under as well as people with medical conditions that prevent them from wearing masks are exempt from the mandate.

Note: The Mission Bay Shuttle strongly urges transit riders to continue to mask for their own, and the ongoing safety of others.

On April 28, the BART Board of Directors approved a temporary amendment to the District’s Code of Conduct to require riders to wear masks in paid areas of the system with limited exceptions. This requirement applies to trains and all portions of stations beyond the fare gates. Children ages two and under as well as people with medical conditions that prevent them from wearing masks are exempt from the mandate. The rule is effective until July 18, 2022, unless it is extended by the BART Board.

Free masks are available at station agent booths and from all safety staff. As with the previous federal mandate, BART PD will continue its education-based enforcement of the mask requirement by offering free masks to anyone who needs one before taking any enforcement action which could include a citation up to $75 or being ejected from the paid area.

BART has installed MERV 14 (Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value) air filters on all train cars. These filters are dense enough to trap the virus and provide an extra layer of protection to riders. Air is replaced every 70 seconds onboard cars mixing filtered air with fresh air. That means the circulation on BART train cars is better than most offices. In addition, all BART employees are fully vaccinated.

Please note: The Mission Bay Shuttle strongly urges transit riders to continue to mask for their own, and the ongoing safety of others.

Mission Bay TMA partners with Spin electric scooters to offer low-income employees a FREE MONTHLY PASS that allows them 30-minute rides any time (including weekends) from anywhere in San Francisco. (Rides may also be used for non-commute trips)
