It’s not BART, but there is all-night bus service to many parts of San Francisco and the East Bay.

VTA also has, or had, some all-night service on line 22.

jd, you’re right about the need for all night transit service, although I doubt people would want to pay the extra taxes to pay for it, if they had the choice.

I have to know: Which “real city” are you moving back to?

yeah, i love how making BART run “all night” (only select stations and only once per hour) is supposed to be a replacement. i wish the bay area would start taking public transit seriously. other cities like chicago and nyc (im not even going to mention the myriad unbelievably fabulous cities with excellent public transit in europe and asia) have been doing so for years. its unlikely that people out after midnight on a friday night are going to be sober enough to want to wait an hour to get a train to oakland’s macarthur or city center stop and then have to walk or cab to wherever they actually live since no buses will be running for actransit either. the bay area’s transit is a joke. thats why you have so many drunk drivers on the freeway every night. the bridge at 2AM often scares the hell out of me but i have little choice but to take it. ill be moving back to a real city sometime this summer.

If BART and GGTransit actually make the effort to put out REAL service there should be little problem.
