For the 9pm FIFA World Cup match on Tuesday, June 16, BART is offering fans special late-night service after midnight to get riders home. These special event trains will not stop at all BART stations. People taking BART to the stadium and driving to park at BART must leave their cars at these key Easy Bay stations for the return trip: Bay Fair, Dublin, MacArthur, El Cerrito del Norte and Pleasant Hill. Note, Powell St Station in downtown San Francisco will be served but does not have parking.

BART is recovering from an earlier problem. There is a 20-minute delay on the San Francisco Line in the SFO, Millbrae, Daly City and East Bay directions due to an earlier equipment problem on the track between Daly City and Colma.
