Station agents arrive at BART's Antioch Station

For the first time since it opened in May 2018, Bart's Antioch Station will be staffed with agents beginning Monday.

The Antioch Station was initially developed as a new concept to provide customer service through supervisors in the nearby control center and through call buttons at the station, according to BART.

Since that time, BART heard from riders who wanted agents at the station.

The new station agent booth will allow BART to more fully integrate the Antioch extension into the core part of the system, BART officials said.

The BART to Antioch extension began carrying riders in East Contra Costa County on May 26, 2018. MTC partnered with BART on the project.
