As the Bay Area endures another hot, dry summer, BART is using goats to graze and cut firebreaks on its right-of-way property, which reduces reliance on fossil-fuel-powered equipment, decreases the chance of sparking fires, and increases safety for workers.
San Francisco's 2021 Fourth of July Fireworks Show is expected to start at 9:30pm. Be in the Embarcadero Station by 10:40pm to catch a train home.
Details of special service
BART will be providing additional trains serving Embarcadero station after regular BART service ends for San Francisco’s Fourth of July fireworks. On July 4, 2021, BART service will close at 9pm, with the last trains dispatching from the end of the line around 9:00pm.
BART will return to near-pre pandemic service on August 2 instead of August 30 as originally planned. The August 2 change includes extending closing times to midnight Monday through Saturday.

BART continues to provide additional trains after regular BART service ends for fans departing A’s night games at the Coliseum.
BART has recently added more trips serving SFO just in time for summer travel. Another option to get to SFO via BART is to drive to Millbrae Station and use the BART app to purchase multi-day reserve parking (formerly called airport/long term parking). Then take a quick ride from Millbrae to SFO airport. The official BART app is a convenient way to purchase reserved parking without needing to print out paper permits in advance. Reserve parking is $6.00 per day.

Whether you prefer your margarita on the rocks or blended, with or without a salt rim, in a pitcher or just a glass, taking BART is the best (and safest) way to try all these delicious libations.
