Join BART's redistricting process (next meeting 1/22/22)

BART election districts are redrawn every 10 years following the U.S. Census. The primary purpose of redistricting is to ensure population equality among districts. This process is guided by traditional redistricting principles as well as the U.S. Constitution, the California Constitution, the federal Voting Rights Act and the BART District Act.

This redistricting page is being updated to provide the public the latest information and details about this process. All details, meeting dates, current maps and potential new maps, mapping tools and videos of previous meetings can be found below.

The BART Board of Directors' Redistricting Committee has begun the process of redrawing election districts to align with current population information based on 2020 Census data. Public involvement is encouraged throughout the process. Please review this document on what redistricting entails and what the public should consider when participating in our redistricting process.

Mapping Tools for Public Engagement

BART has rolled out mapping tools to enable public input for redistricting.

BART interactive mapping tool for redistricting: This tool gives residents the ability to create and share a Community of Interest and/or draft Board of Director districts. Map submissions will appear in the gallery on the main landing page, enabling residents to view public input for redistricting.

BART Districts and Demographic Data: This web mapping tool is for visualizing BART districts and demographic data.

In addition to the interactive mapping tool, BART is providing a Community Input Map to allow residents to identify and provide supplemental information regarding their Community of Interest. This feature can be used on a mobile device and is offered in English and Spanish (Español), providing residents with an app that can be used to submit community information in their language of choice. Explore these tools using the links below.
