<p>[quote user="blue streak 1"]</p> <p>to celebrate Giant's world series victory BART carried many passengers</p> <p><a href="http://www.bart.gov/news/articles/2012/news20121031.aspx?source=hp">http://www.bart.gov/news/articles/2012/news20121031.aspx?source=hp</a></p> <p>so do many cities need a comprehensive subway system ? [/quote]</p> <p>I go to San Francisco five or six times a year. Whilst there I use BART as well as the F line streetcars and the Nos. 47 and 49 buses. It a reasonably good system, although it is not a good idea to use it late at night. </p> <p>Calling BART a subway may be a stretch; most of it runs at or above ground level. Only the portion of the system that runs under Market Street could be considered a subway.</p> <p>Public transport is an important. However, it does not need to be rail. In many instances Rapid Bus Technology or just plain buses would be a better fit. A key consideration is affordability.</p> <p> </p>
