Rockridge, Walnut Creek, Pleasant Hill, and Pittsburg/Bay Point
Proposed BART Green Line Express buses would make the following Eastbay Station stops:
Lake Merritt, Fruitvale, Bay Fair, Hayward, Union City, and Fremont
Stops were selected based on existing late night BART ridership, surveyed interest in service, and proximity to freeway/arterial off-ramps.
