BART will run no trains between 24th St. Mission and Daly City on Saturday, Nov. 14, and Sunday, Nov. 15. Crews will be installing parts of BART's new Communications-Based Train Control system.
What changes
The whole Green Line is canceled for the weekend.
The Red Line runs only between Richmond and 24th St. Mission.
Trains run every 15 minutes between Daly City and Millbrae. All other lines keep 20-minute service.
Departure times may shift up to 3 minutes. An extra Orange Line train leaves Berryessa at 5:40 a.m. Saturday and 7:40 a.m. Sunday.
The bus bridge
SamTrans runs free express buses between 24th St. Mission and Daly City.
Muni runs free "hopper" buses that also stop at Glen Park and Balboa Park. Those two stations will have no trains.
All of these buses have bike racks.
Riders going south of 24th St. Mission should plan for delays of up to 30 minutes. BART says its Trip Planner will show the changes by the end of October.
