BART commuters face delays, partial service closures Wednesday
SAN FRANCISCO (KRON) — Unplanned BART track repairs are impacting the Wednesday morning commute for riders. There are major delays through San Francisco, and partial line closures are in effect.
BART train service in downtown San Francisco has been limited to one track due to the rail repairs. Single tracking is in effect between the Montgomery St. and 16th/Mission stations. Due to the single tracking, the agency said to expect 20-minute delays traveling through downtown SF.
To relieve train congestion, BART officials said there is no Red Line service.
'Richmond riders wanting to go into SF can board an Orange Line train and transfer to the Yellow line-Antioch-SFO train at MacArthur. A shuttle train will run between SFO and Millbrae stations,' the agency said in a service advisory.
The Green Line is shut down between West Oakland and Daly City stations. 'The Green Line will run only between Berryessa/North San Jose and MacArthur,' BART said. 'Green Line riders wanting to go into SF can transfer to the Blue Line-Dublin/Pleasanton-Daly City train at Bay Fair Station.'
Crews conducting overnight inspections of the track found the rail defect between Montgomery St. and Powell St. stations, officials said.
There is no estimated time for regular service to resume.
