BART Board Approves Fare and Parking Fee Hikes to Address Budget Deficit.
BART Board of Directors approved a new budget that includes fare increases and a revised parking policy due to a $93 million deficit looming over the 2025 financial year. The fare will increase twice over the next two years, by 5.5% each time, and the new parking policy will allow for varying parking prices within a certain range. The fare increases are expected to bring in $26 million more to BART through the 2025 financial year.
