SFBayBART includes: (1) - A map of the BART system (2) - An interactive map showing the BART Stations (3) - A tabular list of all BART stations (4) - A list of all routes served by BART (5) - A trip planner Clicking on a BART station on either the interactive map or the tabular view, will show all departure times of the selected station, in either the northbound or southbound direction, in real-time. Clicking on a route, will show a list of all stations served by the selected route. The trip planner will provide a trip list, based on either the intended departure date/time or the intended arrival date/time. A wireless connection is required to use most features, as most data is updated in real-time. The BART station list, however once retrieved is available for offline use, this includes the interactive map and tabular station list. However, the ability to obtain departure times is not available as this data is obtained real-time from the BART server. Note: When BART is not in service at the selected station, you will receive a message indicating no departure time data is available.
