Power has been restored to the Transbay Tube and trains are now moving on both tracks, this after an earlier power issue led to single tracking through the tube. We are now back to full service with Red and Green lines running.
Service suspended on stretch of Blue Line through Aug. 17 https://t.co/PNsHnBcjFX
Because of power issues, we are single tracking through the Transbay tube.. Trains are going through but the Red and Green lines are canceled while crews on site work to restore power.
Bay Area Rapid Transit temporarily halted normal operations through the Transbay Tube on Friday afternoon after a power failure at about 1:20 p.m. local time disrupted electricity to the underwater corridor that links San Francisco with the East Bay. With one of the tube’s two tracks out of service, BART briefly canceled Red and Green line trains and ran remaining services on a single track. Riders traveling between Richmond and Millbrae were directed to transfer at MacArthur Station, while system-wide delays were reported in both directions. BART engineers restored full power by roughly 2:40 p.m., allowing trains to resume on both tracks and enabling the Red and Green lines to return to their normal schedules. The agency warned passengers to expect residual delays as service regularizes.
