BART adds trains, ticket tables for Monday games

By Janis Mara

BART is running longer trains for fans bound for two major Bay Area sports events Monday.

Longer trains will run to San Francisco for the San Francisco Giants-Arizona Diamondbacks game at AT&T Park, and to Oakland's McAfee Coliseum, where the Oakland Raiders play the Denver Broncos. Both games start at 7:15 p.m.

After the Raiders game, BART will add trains for fans leaving the Coliseum.

To help avoid long lines, fans will be able to buy flash passes and round-trip BART tickets at tables at the Dublin/Pleasanton, El Cerrito Del Norte and Fremont stations Monday between 3 p.m. and 7:15 p.m. BART staff will sell flash passes to the Coliseum/Oakland Airport station for football fans and regular round-trip BART tickets for Giants fans headed to the downtown San Francisco stations.
