=== Parking ===
Many BART stations offer parking; however, underpricing causes station parking lots to overflow in the morning.<ref>{{Cite news |title=BART parking overview |publisher=BART |url=http://bart.gov/guide/parking/overview.asp |url-status=dead |access-date=January 7, 2007 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060922182009/http://www.bart.gov/guide/parking/overview.asp |archive-date=September 22, 2006}}</ref> Pervasive congestion and underpricing forces some to drive to distant stations in search of parking.<ref name="Richards2015October">{{Cite news |last=Richards |first=Gary |date=October 7, 2015 |title=Opening of BART Warm Springs station pushed back to next year |work=San Jose Mercury News |url=http://www.mercurynews.com/mr-roadshow/ci_28929100/roadshow-opening-bart-warm-springs-station-pushed-back |access-date=October 9, 2015 |quote=parking after 10 a.m. at any BART station is difficult. Here are the southern Alameda County stations where you might get lucky and find parking in this order: South Hayward, Hayward, Union City, West Dublin/Pleasanton and Castro Valley.... BART is testing the feasibility of posting real-time information that would let a driver check whether spots are available at a particular station. Right now, the best it can do is to provide estimates on its website for when parking lots will be full.}}</ref> BART operates Parking Lots at 36 stations and offers parking passes for designated spots at many stations.<ref>{{cite web |title=BART parking |url=https://www.bart.gov/guide/parking |website=BART Parking guide |access-date=2023-02-03}}</ref>

BART hosts [[car sharing]] locations at many stations, a program introduced by [[City CarShare]]. Riders can transfer from BART and complete their journeys by car. BART offers long-term airport parking through a third-party vendor<ref name="BartAiportParking">{{Cite web |title=Long-Term Parking for Travelers |url=http://www.bart.gov/guide/parking/longterm.asp |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060922190045/http://www.bart.gov/guide/parking/longTerm.asp |archive-date=September 22, 2006 |access-date=January 7, 2007 |publisher=BART}}</ref> at most East Bay stations. Travelers must make an online reservation in advance and pay the daily fee of $5 before they can leave their cars at the BART parking lot.

Parking at stations in Santa Clara County (Milpitas and Berryessa/North San José) is managed by [[Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority]] rather than BART.
