| - | If you are traveling to the Bay Area, the best way to do it is via Richmond BART station instead of Emeryville. It will get you to downtown SF both faster and cheaper (by like $6). Also, now with the new Clipper system rolling out, you can get a $2.85 discount when transferring between BART to other local agencies, if you use a Clipper Card (the regional transit payment system for the Bay Area). | + | Tips for going to the Bay Area: Amtrak has an official stop at San Francisco in their system. It stops right outside the Salesforce Tower and is a short walking distance from BART as well as the Salesforce Transit Center. However, this requires a bus bridge from the Emeryville stations. Instead of using Emeryville, we highly recommend you using the Richmond station and make a quick transfer to BART there. It will get you to downtown SF both faster and cheaper (by like $6). Also, now with the new Clipper system rolling out, you can get a $2.85 discount when transferring between BART to other local agencies for your last mile. For this discount to work, you need to use a Clipper Card (the regional transit payment system for the Bay Area). |
