Expect Some Delays on BART This Weekend

Transbay Tube work will cause delays on some BART trains Saturday and Sunday.

 

It may take some BART riders a little longer to cross San Francisco Bay this weekend.

BART officials say the delays will occur as transit crews shut down one of two tracks in the Transbay Tube to perform maintenance and repair work to electric cables.
