BART elects president and VP, adds new board members

Bay Area Rapid Transit's (BART) board recently welcomed two newly elected members, and elected Director Tom Radulovich as president and Director Joel Keller as vice president.

The new board members are Rebecca Saltzman, who will represent District 3; and Zakhary Mallett, who will represent District 7.

Saltzman is a public transit and public policy advocate who works as a government affairs manager for a California environmental organization. Mallet is a city and transportation planner. A transit advocate for more than a decade, he has participated in transportation studies while advocating for investments that allow public transit as an alternative to driving, BART officials said in a prepared statement.
