BART further modified its schedule in June and September of 2020 to better suit its pandemic-era ridership, but agency officials said they expect to expand weekday and Saturday service back to midnight as soon as September of this year. The full service restoration plan, BART officials told the agency's Board of Directors Thursday morning, would shorten the time between trains from 30 minutes to 15 minutes during non-peak hours until 8 p.m. and change Saturday service hours to 6 a.m. to midnight on all five of the agencies routes. "It improves service at a time when many Bay Area residents and employers are looking forward to a post-pandemic life," Pamela Herhold, BART's assistant general manager for performance and budget, said of the new service plan.
