BART Considers Late-Night Service

Riders may get to push their revelry, starting this fall.

The clock may not strike midnight anymore for BART riders trying to grab the last train for the night.

Late-night or round-the-clock BART services could begin in the fall on a six-month trial basis, according to the San Francisco Chronicle.

BART has briefly tested the idea over the years and riders have long asked for the extended service.

Under a proposal that BART's Board of Directors will consider, trains that now leave the end-of-the-line stations at midnight would leave an hour later on Friday nights.  However, in order to allow for maintenance, Saturday service would start an hour later at 7 a.m.

BART will be looking to see if there is indeed a demand for the extended service during the trial period. 

If directors support the proposal, trains could start running later on Fridays in September.
