Daly City station
Daly City station is an elevated Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) station in Daly City, California, just south of the city limits of San Francisco. It is adjacent to Interstate 280 and California Route 1, which it serves as a park-and-ride station.
From its November 5, 1973 opening until the extension to Colma station in 1996, Daly City was the southern terminus of BART on the Peninsula[2] and the only station that was not in one of the three base counties of San Francisco, Alameda and Contra Costa. It still serves as the terminus for some services that do not continue to the other San Mateo County stations.
