BART’s SOGR Status Held our own up to now  Customer expectations high  System resiliency/redundancy low 40-year old plant is decaying We operate at the limits of capacity to meet growing demand Increased service demand is consuming the assets Reduces asset useful life and pushes forward needed capital rehabilitation projects 6 San Francisco Bay Area Rapid Transit District

BART ASSETS (~$20B) 7 BART owns 40,000 assets San Francisco Bay Area Rapid Transit District

“CONDITION” of ASSETS (at current level of investment) TODAY +10 YEARS (2022) $6B Poor $12.4B Poor The state of the asset, including its stage in life cycle 8 San Francisco Bay Area Rapid Transit District

BART: The Next 40 Years BART Capacity Needs Peak Direction Trains are getting too crowded Peak Morning Platform Escalator Queues at Embarcadero & Montgomery stations are getting too long Peak Afternoon Platforms are also getting too crowded Growth Scenarios: At 500,000 riders, thresholds exceeded during delays At 750,000 riders, thresholds exceeded during on-time service 11

Weekday BART Ridership since SF Airport Extension Opening Record Ridership: Avg. 6% growth over 2 years 12

BART: The Next 40 Years Projected Weekday Ridership 13

Peak Transbay Vehicle Load Standard: 107 Passengers per Car 60 Seated plus 47 Standees 6.4 Square Feet per Standee 14Operations Planning

Standee Area Grows as Crowding Grows Morning Standee Limits Noted In Purple Operations Planning Travel time to Embarcadero (in minutes) 40’ 30’ 28’ 43’ 32’ 36’ 32’ 24’

Station Capacity is a Peak Period Issue at Embarcadero & Montgomery 19

BART: The Next 40 Years Interim Access & Capacity Measures Infrastructure Reduce platform furniture footprint: benches, pay phones High capacity elevators Higher performance escalators Platform screen doors Street Escalator Canopies System Management Metering Measures: real time platform headcount system Skip Stop Service: Montgomery has more capacity than Embarcadero (New Years Eve Plan) In Station Crowd Management (Giants Parade Day) Transbay bus to Transbay Terminal 20

BART: The Next 40 Years The Ultimate Solution: New Side Platforms 21 Total Estimated Construction Cost: $615 million (2009 dollars) Mission Critical Improvement as ridership starts to exceed 500,000 per weekday

BART Metro Service Plan: 30 Peak Hour Transbay Trains Operations Planning22

BART Metro Service Plan: Enhanced Evening/Weekend Service
