The Warm Springs/South Fremont–Daly City line (formerly the Fremont–Daly City line) is a Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) line in the San Francisco Bay Area that runs from Warm Springs/South Fremont station to Daly City station. It has 19 stations in Fremont, Union City, Hayward, San Leandro, Oakland, San Francisco, and Daly City. The line shares tracks with the four other mainline BART services.

The line is colored green on maps; however, BART does not use colored names for its services. The line runs until 7 pm on weekdays and Saturdays. At other times, service is provided by the Richmond–Warm Springs/South Fremont line and the Dublin/Pleasanton–Daly City line, with timed transfers at Bay Fair station.

The Fremont–Daly City line was the third of BART's five rapid transit lines to open. Service began when the Transbay Tube opened on September 16, 1974.[2] The extension to Warm Springs/South Fremont station opened on March 25, 2017.[3] Until September 10, 2018, Saturday service on the line only ran to Fremont station.[4]

A further extension to Berryessa/North San José station as part of the Silicon Valley extension project is projected to open at the end of 2019. The line is planned to eventually extend to Santa Clara station.[5]
