Document Description
The San Francisco Bay Area Rapid Transit District (BART) is proposing to install electric vehicle (EV) chargers throughout the BART District to support its non-revenue vehicle (NRV) fleet and comply with regulatory programs and climate goals. BART’s NRV fleet is required for maintenance of the BART system’s ongoing operations. Examples of non-revenue vehicles would be steel-wheeled vehicles that perform maintenance and inspections of tracks, rubber-tired vehicles used to move employees and supplies to construction sites, and standard vehicles used for administrative purposes. The EV chargers would be installed at BART’s maintenance shops and yards. By reducing the need to drive gasoline-powered vehicles, BART would reduce emissions and air pollution, thereby supporting a healthier environment.
