Bay Area Rapid Transit (Bart), which manages more than 170,000 riders daily, is experiencing a technical defect, so the commuters stuck before the top hour because the largest train system in San Francisco Bay Area closed 5.
According to the press release, the entire weaning of the BART transit network was announced around 5 hours of local time. There was no update about the renewal of the service. It is reported that the commuting agency requires a transit agency to take alternative transport options until it is operated again.
“The problem with computer equipment after working with the network upgrade prevents the service from starting this morning,” said San Francisco’s standard Bart as in -mail notifications to riders. Bart spokesman Chris Filippi mentioned that there was no estimated time to restart the service.
Previous problems with Bart
Bart Service has been interrupted several times in the last few months. Last week, passengers were stuck and, according to officials, had to take alternative routes after the smoke filled the Transbay tube for overheated brakes.
Photos and videos shared with ABC7 news captured the filling of the train around 17:30 under the Bay bridge. Passengers dropped to the floor and many covered their noses as the train stopped. At the Embarcadero station on the platform, large crowds of commuters crowded. Outside, San Francisco firefighters worked with Oakland crews on the other side of the tube. The officials said the smoke was caused by overheated brakes, but there was no fire.
Lieutenant Mariano Elias mentioned with the fire brigade in San Francisco: “What was over were Bart’s brakes warmed. It was not lit and left the residual smoke in the tube.
North Tay, resident and singer shared the experience and said, “I was on the platform of the train station coming from North Berkeley. I got it to West Oakland. And then they told us to move to the Berryessa train.
In May, the system outage caused by the problem of the computer system influenced 40,000 commuting, Bart officials said, reported ABC7 News. Then, about two weeks later, the fire on the San Leandro supporter disrupted the Green Line service for several days.
