Updates on BART Survey for TransLink (Clipper) Since I have a Mac at home, I didn't notice the additional attachment in the PDF document from the BART Board of Directors meeting agenda for this Thursday. I needed to use an Adobe based PDF reader vs. Mac's "preview" program, and I found more information about the BART survey results, and some extra news about how BART will progress with TransLink/Clipper.

Here's more of what came out of the survey (read the initial results first): More news from BART about Clipper:

One note on BART: They seem to* require a $1.75 minimum balance--even though you can go negative, they won't let you on the train for that. Seems odd since they have a $10.85 or so max fare, so $0.85 would make more sense as a minimum balance. (And if possible, only from the two stations which that fare is between.)

* Note that I encountered this only once, a few months ago. It may have changed since then.
