BART Red Line Halted for the Day as Transbay Tube Equipment Problem Causes Morning Delays

Overview

• BART reported an equipment problem on track near the Transbay Tube early Monday that triggered delays and limited service.
• Green Line service to Oakland International was initially unavailable, then ran every 18 minutes before being reported operational again around 6:20 a.m.
• BART said around 6:10 a.m. that lines were recovering but riders should expect at least 20-minute waits through the Transbay Tube.
• Red Line service is suspended for the day, with Millbrae riders directed to the SFO–Millbrae shuttle and Yellow Line transfers, and Richmond riders to the Orange Line with a MacArthur transfer to Yellow.
• BART advised San Francisco–Berryessa travelers to use Blue Line trains and transfer at Bayfair, and it has not provided an estimate for full service normalization.
