BART rolled out a new payment system while its Red Line shut down and remained closed past 2 p.m. The Red Line runs between Richmond, the San Francisco Airport and Millbrae. A power issue between 24th Street Mission and Glen Park caused major delays on lines heading to San Francisco, SFO, Millbrae, Daly City and the East Bay and continued to affect service past 2 p.m. BART advised Richmond-bound Red Line passengers to board an Orange Line train to Berryessa and transfer at MacArthur to a Yellow Line SFO/Millbrae train. Passengers from Millbrae or SFO were told to take a Yellow Line toward Antioch and transfer at 19th Street to an Orange Line toward Richmond. Officials gave no timeline for full service restoration.
The line runs between Richmond through the San Francisco Airport and into Millbrae. BART did not say why the line was down, but a power issue earlier Wednesday caused a major delay on all lines heading to San Francisco in the SFO, Millbrae, Daly City and East Bay directions and that also was affecting the system past 2 p.m. That power issue happened between the 24th Street Mission and Glen Park stations.
BART told Red Line passengers traveling from Richmond to board an Orange Line train going to the Berryessa station in San Jose, then transfer at MacArthur station to a Yellow Line SFO/Millbrae train. Passengers traveling from Millbrae or SFO were told to board a Yellow Line train toward Antioch and transfer at 19th Street station to an Orange Line train toward Richmond. Officials did not say when full service on the system was expected.
