BART EZ Rider - Pilot Program Written By: Hambaba 2007-01-26 05:00:00
EZ Rider, a blessing for the hard core users of BART (Bay Area Rapid Transit) system; No more waiting in lines for a new ticket, missing the BART by a mere few seconds due to administrative procedures (ie adding more value on your ticket, getting stuck at the entrance, etc). BART is currently testing a new card system that will allow riders to have a electronic "smart card" which they can quickly swipe over any BART entrances to gain access. The card will be connected to user's credit or debit card allowing for automatic reductions whenever the card is low in value.
