BART broken

2012-06-14 21:28:03.29253+02 by Dan Lyke 1 comments

Bad day for transit in the Bay Area. I knew something was up because of various San Francisco logistics issues in my twitter stream, but this KQED article on the BART outage today is accompanied by a picture of the fire in an under-construction building near the elevated tracks that's pretty scarily dramatic. Wouldn't be surprised if BART is down for a couple of weeks, if they have to rebuild those elevated portions.
