BART may go on strike July 1, 2009. Don’t wait until then to figure out how to get to work. Talk to co-workers or others in your building NOW to arrange a carpool and then sign up with us to receive a $60 gift card. You might also consider vanpooling. Look for vans with empty seats. If you are able to join a van, sign up to receive 50% discount on your vanpool costs from 511 Contra Costa. Be sure to enroll in our Guaranteed Ride Home Program. It’s our way of encouraging carpooling instead of driving alone to work. If you would like to find a carpool or vanpool partner using the Regional Rideshare data base visit http://rideshare.511.org.
Earliest possible strike date is July 13th which includes the 72 hour strike notice.
