Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) has selected BMW design arm DesignworksUSA to create its “Fleet of the Future” new generation of train cars.
“Potential changes include easy-to-clean plastic seats, wider aisles for faster boarding times, and bike corrals. BART is asking for public input on everything from seat style and handicap accommodations to the types of information included in on-board displays. Of the thousand surveys already received, riders have indicated their willingness to give up a couple inches of leg room and seat width to ensure a more pleasant transportation experience.” via Inhabitat
