6 seats removed from some BART cars

6 seats removed from some BART cars: "Six seats are being removed from some cars to create more space for people to stand and to accommodate the growing number of on-board bikes and the luggage hauled by passengers heading to and from San Francisco International Airport."



Average weekday ridership 360,000
Original seats per car 68
Seats to be removed per car 6
Train cars reconfigured 20
Train cars planned for reconfiguration 80
Cars systemwide 578
Trains systemwide 65


Thank Goodness! I'm all for more open access and fewer scuzzy seats.
