BART experienced major service disruptions due to a fire at the San Leandro station early Tuesday morning, impacting three significant lines. Although full service resumed by Wednesday morning, trains between Bay Fair and Coliseum are operating at reduced speeds. This incident follows a system-wide outage related to a computer issue two weeks prior. Commuters expressed their frustration over the continued interruptions, with one remarking on the challenges of notifying work colleagues about delays. BART officials are investigating the cause of the fire, which is yet to be determined.
A BART spokesperson apologized to riders for the inconvenience caused by the recent fire, underscoring that the transit system typically operates reliably and ridership is on the rise.
Commuter Itzel Rodriguez expressed frustration at the service disruption, stating it's challenging to adjust work commitments when reliant on train services that experience outages.
