BART expands service for Fleet Week, other weekend events

BART will run extra service this weekend to accommodate the thousands of people who will choose the ease of riding BART instead of the hassle of driving when they head to Fleet Week, the San Francisco Italian Heritage Day Parade, the Warriors first preseason match-up at the Oracle Arena and the 49ers home game. 
 
BART will increase service by adding more cars to the normal weekend train lengths.

Additionally, on Sunday, BART will have trains on stand-by to accommodate crowds headed to and from Fleet Week festivities, the Italian Heritage Parade and the San Francisco 49ers versus Philadelphia game that starts at 1:15 p.m. at Candlestick Park.
