trans bay terminal a few blocks away. >> let's start our team coverage with "abc 7 news" reporter chris wynn now at the live shut down center. >> reporter: right now passengers are directed away from the transit center and you can see it is pretty much a ghost town tonight, at least in this part of the city, in this part of the transit center which is right next to the sales force tower. i want to show you video from earlier as crews began putting up caution tape around parts of the sales force transit center. right now fremont street between howard and mission remains blocked off, as inspectors look at every single steel beam at the transit center. they want to make sure it is safe for people to be inside the building. they're doing it out of an abundance of caution and this comes as a discovery was made earlier today around 2:00 this morning, a crack was found in one of the steel beams in the ceiling of the third floor bus deck on the eastern side of the transit center. that's near fremont street. now, switching over to video from sky 7, again, you can see how empty the area is as

passengers were being sent over to the old temporary trans bay terminal. right now engineers are working with city and transit agencies to determine what parts of the new transit center are safe to reopen. just moments ago, first street between mission and howard reopened to vehicular traffic so some good news there. but, again, fremont street, back here live, fremont street, which is one of the main roads into the city from the freeway, that remains closed between howard and mission. so if you are heading into san francisco tonight, no word yet on when this stretch will reopen. also, if you are planning on traveling into the city tomorrow morning, transit officials say to expect major delays. we'll be sure to each you posted online and on air at abc7news.com. for now reporting live in san francisco, i'm chris wynn, "abc 7 news." >> chris, thank you. i want to give you a look at the four floors of the transit center. we've indicated on this map

where the crack is located. it is on the third floor near fremont and mission streets. the impacted horizontal steel beam is just beneath the roof top park you have been seeing from sky 7 with the beautiful garden on top. it is concealed with several feet of soil. that yellow vertical line, that's an elevator. yeah, you see the elevator right there, which you can see -- well, there's numerous elevators on the schematic here. >> bus service is operating out of the sold temporary trans bay terminal because of this. that closed when the new center opened, but look at it now. buses are going, people are being picked up there. sky map 7 showing us exactly where it is, at howard and beale. a full city block along there. >> melanie wood row is there live. melanie, there's obviously a lot of confusion in this situation. how are people handling all of

this? >> well, they're handling it better than our audio is handling it. we will get to melanie in a second once we get the audio -- oh, now we can. melanie, you are on. >> reporter: okay. >> go. >> reporter: all right. hoping, kristen and larry, you guys can hear us now. obviously, yes, we are at the old transit center, and this is where people are coming. coming up and really having no idea what is going on. but when they got to the new transit center [ inaudible ] -- people in full-on sprint running here. we have some ground video to show you, of course, everybody likely coming off the heels of a long workday and wanting to get home to their families and the comfort of their home. as one woman described to us, luckily it is not too far away.

>> it is aittleit of but it is f a block away so it is not that many of an inconvenience. i guess i'm not that surprised, looking at the bay bridge that is already messed up. seems like a typical thing around here, so i don't know. just go with the flow i guess. >> well, going with the flow is harder than you might think. it is not flowing. thank you very much, melanie, for that report. >> yeah. just to give you an idea of the magnitude of what we're talking about as we give you a look at sky 7, you will see the grid lock and the buses and people lined up. this facility is slated to handle 100,000 passengers per day. we're talking about 45 million people per year. it has been dubbed the grand central of the west. >> yep. >> grand central station in new york, if you have ever been there, it is a hub of trains and buses and millions of people coming and going, and it cost

over $2 billion to build. it was scheduled to be $1.5 billion. they had costover runs and now they have a steel beam they have to fix. the trans bay authority held a news conference to give us the latest information on what they're doing right now. let's go to "abc 7 news" reporter kate larson who was at that news conference. kate. >> reporter: kristen, that's right. we are actually in a building across the street from the transit center. we have quite a view of the top of the building. we have from the executive director of the trans bay joint powers authority. we will show you some aerials from sky 7 here this afternoon. i can tell you that he is presumably a man that worked hard on this transit center, apologized to the commuters. he said he is extremely disappointed this fissure, this crack is inside the steel beam. i want to give you a few details of what they know. it is in a steel beam 6 1/2 feet

deep and it was discovered around 10:00 this morning when workers were installing ceiling panels in the area. it is unknown how long that crack has been there. after multiple inspections throughout the day, they did decide, of course, to close the building this evening, and they're, again, apologizing to commuters. here is what they said about that crack. >> well, we discovered it at 10:00. we asked our designers to come in and inspect it and do some analysis. once we got the findings from the designers, it became apparent that the bus deck needs to be closed for bus -- and the building needs further inspection. based on that information and because safety is our highest priority, we decided to close the building and move operations to the temporary terminal. >> reporter: so he said that they just closed the terminal out of an abundance of caution because of safety issues. we asked what those safety issues might be. it is unclear at this time. we also asked if they think it

is related to what is going on at the nearby millennial tower. they said no, at this point they think it is an isolated incident and this is one of many similar beams in the ceiling in this part of the trans bay terminal. they said that right now that they have three people there working, inspecting it, trying to figure out what is going on, how they can solve the problem so, of course, they can open it back up to commuters. at this point they said commuters should expect to use the temporary terminal they were using nearby while all of this was under construction. it could be days, it could be weeks. it is just indefinite at this point. that's the latest here live near the transit center. i'm kate larson, abc 7. back to you. >> all right, kate. thanks so much. i want to give you a little background now on the sales force transit center that opened to great fan fare really weeks ago. august 12th was the first day of service, but there was a full three days of events, each day huge crowds showed up and stayed for hours. remember, this cost $2.2 billion and its need was necessitated by

the eth in 1989. so it took all of this time to build it and there it is, and now the steel beam issue. now, most of the people we talked with said after eight years of construction they were certainly excited for it to be done. most said they were impressed by the design. very modern. they were looking forward to improved transit options as well. while we were able to fly drone view salesforce trans bay terminal around the time it opened, you can see these are the steel beams right here. it is one of these that is having that issue, that fissure right now that's necessitated the inspections and evacuations. these are not the exact beams, but they definitely give you an idea how prominently steel beams are featured in the design of that billing. crews are, again, checking right now to see if other beams are affected other than that just one that they have found. >> it is a gorgeous facility actually, and it was very expensive. it is just we have this problem that they're going to have to figure out. here is a live view from sky map

7. as you might imagine when you are talking about thousands of people being moved from one location to another, you are going to have grid lock. we've got dream force going on in the city. we have a giants game tonight as well. so just getting pretty much anywhere in the downtown area is a major nightmare. i was just checking the bay bridge a while ago. if you get to the bridge, you can actually move, but getting there is the issue. now, a reminder, we use the "abc 7 news" app to send out this push alert when the news broke. it was right around 4:40 p.m. exactly. we put together a commuter resources page on our app to help you and your loved ones try to get home. that includes information on every bus line that uses the salesforce transit center. you will have to go back to the old center for that, which is a block or two away. go to the app or abc7news.com right now to get that information. we should point out that he was saying they will be inspecting tonight into tomorrow morning, so this is a situation that could go on for a while. >> and don't forget the dream

purple spots. throws har bhi fourth and also first between kind of the market/mission/howard area closed due to what is happening there at the salesforce transit center. >> that's denoted by purple, we should point out. >> what did i say? >> no, i'm just your assistant here. >> thank you, thank you. >> the other part, that would be -- i'm trying to figure out the angle here. anyway, you see two marks in purple. >> closed. >> one is closed because of dream force and the other is closed because of the problem at the trans bay center. >> that's right. all of the red means very, very slow through the city streets, especially to the bay bridge and 101 and 280. >> other breaking transportation news and that is that delta airlines grounded all dlt au flights in the continental u.s. because of a system-wide i.t. issue. the airline says flights in the air will continue to their destinations. they are saying they're not in any trouble, it is just a computer glitch. we'll bring you updates on the

delta situation when we get them. now, believe it or not, there's another transit issue involving b.a.r.t. tonight we are getting an early look at a proposal to protect passengers on b.a.r.t days before the idea is pitched to b.a.r.t's board of directors. >> b.a.r.t is one of the bay area's busiest transit agencies. people take about 10 million trips a month and a b.a.r.t director is proposing adding civilian safety ambassadors to ride the trains and b.a.r.t police are asking for more officers. >> "abc 7 news" reporter katie utehs live in west oakland with more on the potential safety efforts. katie. >> reporter: kristen and larry, the good news here is this is a potential improvement of the transit system. here in west oakland during the holiday season, people are escorted by civilians to their cars so that their bags aren't stolen. imagine a similar effort of civilians on the b.a.r.t trains. one of the things we hear after major incidents is that people would like more of a presence on the trains. >> our staffing just doesn't allow that, and i think in the near term this would be a great

complement to our safety activity. >> reporter: b.a.r.t district nine director bevin dufty is trying to get creative with the resources the agency has. he wants to hire civilian safety ambassadors to ride the b.a.r.t trains. >> our interest is really in getting a safety presence, a visible presence on the trains, in the stations, deescalating conflict situations, helping people that need help to get that help. >> reporter: some riders are skeptical. >> we have b.a.r.t police, we have people at the station, we have people that are employed. so do your job, make sure that b.a.r.t is safe, and we don't need people acting like vigilantes. >> reporter: dufty says the program would be modelled off an existing muni ambassador effort. >> i think we can absolutely do it. it has been a very huge success, >> rorr: b.a.r pgram i april. paid civilians monitor the elevators the keep people from relieving themselves within them. >> that's excellent. i think that anything that is

offered for security should be used. >> reporter: there's also a proposal to add more officers. some feel, despite high-profile incidents, b.a.r.t is mostly safe day-to-day. >> i don't know that having more officers is going to solve anything. a lot of people take the train. >> reporter: dufty will pitch the idea at thursday's b.a.r.t meeting and ask the staff to come back for a proposal for the board of directors to consider. cost wise, muni's program cost $1.2 million and that's for 17 full-time employees. b.a.r.t is a larger transit agency, so they would likely do double that amount or even three times that amount of people. so we're talking somewhere in the ballpark of $3 million. live in west oakland, katie utehs, "abc 7 news." >> thank you. we want to know what your experiences are like on bart. add the #dearbart when you tweet, facebook or instagram.

now abc 7 sports with mindi bach. the warriors' quest for a three-peat is under way as the team reported for first day of training camp. the regulars were there except for the restricted free agent, patrick mccaw. he has yet to sign the offer sheet. there are a few new faces on the court as well, except for demarcus cousins. the all-star center is working through an achilles injury. steve kerr expects to see him on the practice court soon. >> we are taking it slowly with him. i don't think it will be too long before he is taking part in practice, but for right now it is important that he gets his full workout at the training center. he did a ton of movement stuff, court work, ball handling, shooting stuff on his own. but he did not take part with the team. >> well, this season is the warriors' last at oracle arena.

steve kerr wants the team to enjoy the moments this season rather than focus on future uncertainty. you see draymond green said before he could do that he had to get as far away as possible from last season's championship run. >> i didn't want to think about basketball. i didn't want to think about the run, none of that. i didn't even want to see the trophy. you know, guys, we get an opportunity to take the trophy back home or wherever you want to go. i wanted no parts of it. it was just -- it was so tough that i -- i really needed to decompress from that and just get away from it for a while. it wasn't that i really wanted to think about. now, you know, we move forward, and, you know, appreciate what we did last year but it is time to try to do it all over again. >> that was certainly memorable, as was monday night for the a's. oakland clenched a spot in the postseason and celebrated with champagne and beer sprays that put the belawmakggio fountain t

shame. a shot at the top wild card is still at stake. tonight, back to work against the mariners. >> i mean it -- i don't have words to even describe it. it is a dream come true. a lot of our first bowl seasons and a lot of guys here, it is our first time in the playoffs. no matter what happens, where we play it, we're going to be ready and we can't wait. i'm excited. >> final thing, what do you think mom and dad are thinking right now as you look at the camera? i'm sure they're watching. >> don't get too drunk. >> we'll see how matt chapman plays tonight. the yankees put the a's in the playoffs with a win over the rays last night. the a's need the rays to win tonight to keep pace for the top wild card. rays got nothing with the bases loaded, and then the yankees got plenty in the top of the third. look at that, yankees, he led off with a solo shot. gary sanchez did most of the rest of work. that's a three-run shot. new york scored seven runs in the top of the third. yeah, the a's will need to win

tonight to remain 1 1/2 games back for that top wild card spot. usa today is reporting former a's third baseman is favored to replace mike manager next year. he retired after the 2014 season and is a special assistant with the angels. jimmy garoppolo and saylor swift have an interesting connection, even though i have no idea if the two ever met. no, we are not tmz, but garoppolo became the second lost for the season with a torn acl. garoppolo suffered the injury in kansas city on natural turf that was resod two weeks ago. grounds crews had to change the grass after nearly 60,000 swifties attended the pop stars concert at arrowhead stadium. >> one guy made a cut on kansas city on resodded turf after a taylor swift concert. i don't know if it had anything

to do with it. another guy made a cut on the practice field in the last play of practice. yeah, whatever information we get, it wouldn't affect me very much. tell them to -- can't tell them to avoid kansas city if we play there. >> the 49ers with like to avoid kansas city after what happened on the field and with the final score as well, but unfortunate. two key players lost for the season. as you said, season open? there are 13 games left to play. >> taylor swift would have been smart enough to run out of bounds. you didn't need to take that hit. sorry, jimmy. come on, what are you doing? thank you, mindi. >> sure. join us tonight on kofi tv 20, cable channel 313 and here on abc 7. structure investigators are working late tonight, investigating a crack in a beam at the new salesforce transit center. we will have an update on the morning commute because it will continue into the morning. on abc 7 at 11:00 we will hear from the lawyer representing another woman
