BART is getting the word out that its ventilation process keeps riders as safe as possible.
The air on BART is filtered more effectively than that in a typical indoor setting like a grocery store or pharmacy, with an entire train car’s air being replaced about every 70 seconds, according to the agency. That was the case before Covid-19.
As BART implements a 15-step Welcome Back Plan with new health and safety measures, ventilation is more important than ever.
Wearing a mask is a first line of protection and BART’s Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning system provides another safety layer, agency officials said.
