The BART to San Jose area of our web site contains the following:

* information and (independent) analysis on BART to San Jose as it
stands now
* news on BART to Warm Springs and SFO, and analysis where applicable
* a history of why BART projects always exceed their original costs by
at least 100%
* an RSS feed from bart.gov on the latest updates involving BART service
* a history of BART from its planning stages in the 1950's, to the
first service in 1972, up until today
* current BART system map
* BART technology guide
* a guide to BART's Board of Directors

Please make it a point to visit this part of our web site often. Tell
your friends about this new area of our web site. Get educated on the
who, what, and where BART issues are "behind the scenes." Note that
some of the content comes from San Francisco alternative weeklies such
as the Bay Guardian and the Weekly. As they have covered BART since
it began serving The City in the 1970's they will tell us what to
expect for the process of (attempting to have) BART coming into the
Valley.

Needless to say, there are a LOT of hidden facts about BART projects
that these papers have, which you will soon see. (Hidden since no
local media outlet nor politican nor VTA management member dare say
publically.) Hence the name of the new portal - "BART to San Jose
News and Hidden Facts."

More content, where available, is being added to this new area of the
web site. If you have anything additional you want added to it,
indicate so right here. Have fun and enjoy.
