BART commuters face delays, partial service closures Wednesday
SAN FRANCISCO (KRON) — Unplanned BART track repairs are impacting the Wednesday morning commute for riders. There are major delays through San Francisco, and partial line closures are in effect.
BART train service in downtown San Francisco has been limited to one track due to the rail repairs. Single tracking is in effect between the Montgomery St. and 16th/Mission stations. Due to the single tracking, the agency said to expect 20-minute delays traveling through downtown SF.
To relieve train congestion, BART officials said there is no Red Line service.
'Richmond riders wanting to go into SF can board an Orange Line train and transfer to the Yellow line-Antioch-SFO train at MacArthur. A shuttle train will run between SFO and Millbrae stations,' the agency said in a service advisory.
The Green Line is shut down between West Oakland and Daly City stations. 'The Green Line will run only between Berryessa/North San Jose and MacArthur,' BART said. 'Green Line riders wanting to go into SF can transfer to the Blue Line-Dublin/Pleasanton-Daly City train at Bay Fair Station.'
Crews conducting overnight inspections of the track found the rail defect between Montgomery St. and Powell St. stations, officials said.
There is no estimated time for regular service to resume.

Celebrities embark on 555-mile cycle for MND research and deliver Lions match ball
A team of celebrities and rugby players are preparing for a 555-mile cycle challenge around the island of Ireland to raise funds for research into motor neurone disease (MND) in memory of the late Doddie Weir. Weir died of MND aged 52 in November 2022, after years of campaigning to raise awareness of the condition and funds into research. Scottish rugby legend Kenny Logan and his television presenter wife Gabby are among those preparing to take part in Doddie'5 Lions Challenge, cycling around 100 miles a day for six days, departing from Belfast on Sunday. The team will cycle through counties including Galway, Limerick and Cork, to arrive in Dublin on June 20 and deliver the match ball to the Aviva Stadium for the British and Irish Lions' 1888 Cup clash with Argentina. Some participants have had to pull out due to injury, including Weir's son Hamish, who will instead drive a support vehicle, while Scotland rugby stars Bryan Redpath and Hugo Southwell, and ex-Lions and Ireland international Rob Henderson, will also no longer be able to take part. Football legend Ally McCoist, actor Jamie Bamber, former Harlequins player Mel Deane, and cancer campaigner Iain Ward will all take part alongside the Logans. The challenge has raised more than £300,000 for My Name'5 Doddie Foundation and the Irish Motor Neurone Disease Association so far, with hopes of reaching £500,000 before Sunday. Kenny Logan will lead the team, and he has been doing intensive hill sessions on an exercise bike twice a week ahead of his second endurance fundraiser for MND research. He joined the Edinburgh to Paris cycle in 2023 which raised almost £1 million. He said: 'We've lost a few to injury, and it just shows how demanding this is going to be. I've had my own aches and pains. No major injuries thankfully but I've definitely been reminded why I probably shouldn't be moving this much at my age. 'I'm most nervous about the hills. I convinced myself Ireland was flat – it's definitely not. But nerves are good. I've always had them before a big challenge. 'The support's been incredible. We've still got time to push, and every penny counts. 'Since Doddie died, awareness has grown massively – but we still need to fund research. The foundation has committed nearly £20 million already, which is phenomenal, but it's only the beginning. 'Doddie would be proud – but he'd be telling us to go further and faster. That's why we're doing this.' He joked that McCoist needed some help with bike maintenance. Logan said: 'Ally's been out and about, but his bike broke down the other day. I told him not to trust himself to check the batteries on his fancy gears – someone else needs to do that for him.' Weir set up the My Name'5 Doddie Foundation in 2017, the year after he was diagnosed with MND. All funds raised form the cycle will support the foundation to find effective treatments and ultimately a cure for MND. To donate or learn more, visit

Advanced passenger processing system now captures photos before passport checks
The U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) is rolling out new technology at the start of summer travel for those visiting or returning to the land of the free. "Enhanced passenger processing" alerts CBP officers to passengers' details before those travelers even get to a passport check by using automatic photo-capturing technology. Fox News Digital reached out to CBP with questions regarding the specific details that might be shared with officials. CBP Acting Executive Assistant Commissioner Diane Sabatino said in a press release the department is "committed to enhancing national security while streamlining lawful travel." "By leveraging advanced technologies and mobile applications, we are transforming inspections at airports into a seamless, touchless process, enabling faster risk identification and efficient processing of legitimate visitors," Sabatino added. Enhanced passenger processing is currently available at 10 U.S. airports and one international location. It can be found at John F. Kennedy International Airport, Orlando International Airport, Dallas Fort Worth International Airport, Denver International Airport, Charlotte Douglas International Airport, Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, Cross Border Xpress, Chicago O'Hare International Airport, Los Angeles International Airport, Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International, and Dublin Airport. There are discussions about introducing the technology to 10 additional locations, with one launching at Montréal-Trudeau International Airport next month. CBP officials processed over 420 million travelers at ports of entry in fiscal year 2024, marking a 6.6% increase from the previous year, according to CBP. Global Entry members can use "Seamless Border Entry" technology, which provides a touchless experience for flyers "on the move" by auto-capturing photos. The technology "allows Global Entry members to move through the inspection process seamlessly with minimal interaction with a CBP officer, depending on officer discretion," the release said. Seamless border entry's eighth and final location is set to open at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta Airport this month.
