One of three new BART trains was open to the public at the platform at the Pleasant Hill/Contra Costa Centre Station in Walnut Creek on Saturday, October 15, 2016.
BART is advising that the system and its stations are closed until further notice Sunday and is telling passengers to seek other options.
The district said in a notice:
“Partner transit agencies are providing bus service throughout BART’s service area including MUNI, AC Transit, VTA, Tri Delta, CCCTA, and WHEELS.”
The agency had earlier announced that stations would not open at 8 a.m. as scheduled “Due to a systemwide computer problem.”
The announcement comes just a day before the transit district had been scheduled to increase the frequency of trains to serve increased weekday ridership. The system had planned to have trains on some lines running every 15 minutes during weekday commute hours.
BART representatives were not immediately available Sunday to comment on the system’s problems Sunday.
