"BART's growing ridership, especially during the weekends, shows that the improvements BART has made over the past several years are working. More and more people are choosing BART as their way to get around and have fun."
"The community/volunteer effort is doing better than expected. We believe we will get there, but we need everyone to dig in for a real final push, especially because of the many state ballot measures in the field."
"If you haven't gathered signatures yet, it's a great time to jump in as we approach our final push. Every event includes training, so it's easy to start."
Transit advocates have successfully gathered 46,300 signatures for a regional transit funding measure and 4,900 for a Muni funding measure. This is part of a grassroots effort to reach 186,000 signatures needed by June 6 for the November ballot. BART's ridership is increasing, indicating public support for transit improvements. Volunteer efforts are crucial, and advocates encourage more participation as they approach the final push. There is also a paid signature-gathering campaign underway, with $3 million available to support these efforts.
