Background information on Parking Fees
Parking lot usage is evaluated every 6 months. If the lot at a station is full, then the daily parking fee may increase by 50¢. If the lot is less than 95% full, then the fee may decrease by 50¢. BART's parking fee policy has a $3 parking daily fee maximum, except at West Oakland. All revenue generated from these new fees will be placed into a special account to be used only for programs for improved station access, including shuttle and feeder service to stations, and much needed station rehabilitation and modernization. If you use your Clipper card to pay for your parking, your autoload amount will be adjusted. Please consult www.BART.gov/parking for details.

3 ways to pay:

1.    Clipper card: This is the easiest way to pay for your parking. Sign up in advance at www.BART.gov/parking to link your Clipper card to a hang tag for your car. Then you simply tag the card inside the paid area at a Parking Validation Machine. There is no need to remember your stall number or pay with cash on a daily basis. (Not available at Glen Park Station).
2.    Cash: Once inside the faregates enter the stall number from your parking space into an Add Fare Machine; pay in cash, and save your receipt.
3.    Blue Tickets: Once inside the faregates enter the stall number from your parking space into an Add Fare Machine; pay with your blue ticket, and save your receipt. You may only pay with a BART blue ticket if you have entered the faregates with this same ticket.
