Join BART in celebrating the 7th annual National Dump the Pump Day, Thursday, June 21

Dump the Pump!On June 21, BART will celebrate National Dump the Pump Day by passing out Dump the Pump stickers to riders at the Embarcadero, Montgomery, 12th Street/Oakland City Center, Downtown Berkeley, Fruitvale and Balboa Park stations from 6 a.m. – 9 a.m.  BART riders can wear the sticker during the day for a chance to win free BART tickets. BART “Dump the Pump Squads” will be on the lookout for sticker-wearers and reward them for dumping the pump with free BART tickets.

Get spotted by a Dump the Pump Squad around Embarcadero, Montgomery, 12th Street/Oakland City Center, Downtown Berkeley, Fruitvale and Balboa Park stations to win a $10 or $50 BART ticket. Be sure to wear your sticker! Public transportation reduces our nation’s use of gasoline by 4.2 billion gallons a year and averts 37 million metric tons of carbon emissions annually. Locally, each weekday, BART riders save 200,000 gallons of gas and keep 4,000,000 pounds of pollution out of our air. Add to that total, take BART…and you’re there!
