BART’s fare evasion problem analyzed with an eye toward equitable solutions

CBS News covered the recent announcement that CPE will join partners to conduct a thorough analysis of fare evasion enforcement policies and practices at BART.  These efforts underway aim to directly address the disparate impact faced by Black and Brown transit riders and build more equitable policies intended to increase safety for all mass transit riders in the Bay Area.

An excerpt from the CBS News coverage states: Hans Menos from the Center for Policing Equity says the new study and the center’s partnership with BART is meant to “focus on making the lives and the movement and the transit of people, particularly Black and brown people, more safe, more equitable and more fair.”
