Entire line on BART continues to be out of service

BART said in an alert Monday morning that the red line service between Richmond and Millbrae, including the San Francisco International Airport, is continuing to not run due to power issues. The transit system said it is still offering shuttle service between Millbrae and the airport, and there is service on the yellow line between the airport and Antioch. BART did not say when the red line trains will resume. In the meantime, orange line trains are running on a normal schedule between Richmond and the MacArthur station in Oakland. If you are traveling between the Richmond and Ashby stations to or from San Francisco or the airport, you will need to transfer between an orange line train and a yellow line train. The red line service has been suspended since March 6 when a cable broke between the El Cerrito Plaza and Ashby stations. The cables “are part of the original 34.5 kV cables which BART has been replacing systemwide for years,” the transit agency said. “The cables were installed in the 1970s as part of BART’s original infrastructure and have outlasted their useful life 50 years later.” While orange line service has been restored, the damaged cables are unable to provide enough electricity to run red line trains, BART said. BART posted a map reflecting the temporary service changes on its website and recommended alternatives, such as taking AC Transit buses, for those who wish to skip the service impacts.
