rest oakland bart station. the building under construction cost the morning commute or hit the into chaos for those of

>>george: there was extra ferry service google * city of >>george: this is the ride from downtown santa cisco leading to the lower deck of the bay bridge. the bridge approach is a pretty badly back then. i am going to switch from this live look to the traffic maps that show the road sensors. look at how much red there is on the sensors leading on to the lower deck of the bay bridge. i am going to slide the map in a little bit to show where the traffic backup leading into san francisco and through it begins which

is here, the candlestick causeway. it is backed up beyond the candlestick exit of the northbound highway 1 01 and know-how salchows staff's office if >>george: your other exit route to the city is to the north. it is backed up along lombard backed up from van ness and highway one. part presidio drive and 19th avenue are jammed.

look at the back up there reaches on to the richardson bay bridge. the last drive time from san francisco december fell was 73 minutes. >>pam: that it's really troubling on it's really difficult travel date. in j.r stone is that one of the on rams for the bay bridge at first and harrison streets in san francisco. at this time of day it is pretty heavy. how would you make the comparison in light of today's trouble? >>caller: it is no doubt slow going. if you are getting on to as a 80 coming keep in mind, this is the last ramp before the bridge. many people coming from the downtown area will try to squeeze onto the ramp. this sec is making an illegal turn onto the ramp

as a receipt. that can back things up and has a back the things up at times is evident. really, the problem is of the ec of these people coming from the embarcadero area. the problem is, you can see the vehicles on first street. many of the vehicles are strapped up all the way down some markets the. in alcohol this house >> i looked online and when i was leaving work it said the drive time was 38 minutes. i rushed out. i think it has had 38 minutes just from claes read to the bridge. coming from vallejo, i could not catch the ferry. i got on the road and into the center of cell-richmond bridge.

>> the part of force and our officer its controlling these lights. we have seen traffic heating up at this spot. it is slow going if you're getting on to the bay bridge at first and harrison. >>pam: one thing that was really refreshen, other public transit agency's defense to get up and brought an extra service, extra drivers to handle the extra load because of the problems on bart. that's certainly meant a great deal for those trying to get to and from work. charles clifford is at the san francisco ferry terminal which was one of the agencies that added extra ferry to accommodate extra travelers. >>charles: there is no

guarantee that all of these folks will get on. we are seeing people from the giants gave the losses it very seriously have disappeared and now we're starting to see fans from the golf tournament showing up to get on the ferry and head back to the state. we will stay here for the next couple of hours and have updates coming up. >>pam: all this started with

an early-morning fire in west oakland query dan kerman is standing by at the scene of the fire. how >>dan: we consent at this point, a pg&e crews are still here, atf agents as well as oakland fire inspectors have not been able to get inside this building the has the remains of safe. cut this was going a the fourth story senior housing complex. all that is left of the building is the cement dries. this area caught fire and then caught the bart tracks on fire catching the third rail and damaging various tables. it is for that reason that our service was out for such a long time. at this point, the cause of the fire is still under investigation. a security guard that works here has told fire officials that there were people all

around the area at the time the fire broke out at see 6:00 p.m. hon. there are reports that authorities are looking for suspects but that is unconfirmed. again, the cause of the fire is being looked at by oakland fire and atf. at this point, it is still under investigation. >>pam: let's take a live picture from sky 4 of the crawl home on this thursday evening. will be three in active back in '08, we didn't have these u-verse wireless receivers that let you move the tv around wherever.

>>pam: here is a live the picture of highway 101 at the 280 interchange. this is akin to the gives the idea of how far back the back of those as people had to the bay bridge. many more people in their cars this evening because of the problems with our this morning.

nonetheless, bart is running a limited service across this translates to. the tracks are repaired, the trains, and fewer of them are running where they're keeping an eye and things as they have made the repairs for the massive fire overnight. 50,000 people travel using the transfer into the everyday if for gabe slate is at one location where they get on board. it is in san francisco at the embarcadero station. there's not much trouble there at all. >>gabe: this is the place to be. at 3:45 p.m., they start running trains to the east. there are definitely less people than normal. it is strange and ironic situation babar was behind

the mess today. not their fault, but it was a solution to the bad commute. many the corsica ferry over. i am here at the embarcadero bart station. there is no way. bard is running a very as of late. if you need to get to the east bay, tried bart. >>pam: just into the newsroom, we're hearing that bart trains will be up to full speed by 5:30 p.m.. that is just a few minutes away. if that is in 13 minutes from now. >>pam: let's check in with the justice was looking a lot of those people in their cars tried to get off. he is at 8 incline and

sleek. jeff >> san francisco park and forest and officers are on seen making sure that people obey the laws so that gridlock does not occur. that is a street. you can see that is the end of the line of the cars on eighth street. not too bad that it is a little bit of a different story on bryant street. these two streets intersects here. they come and go on to the bay bridge. that is where everyone is headed. if you have not left yet, take a look, eighth street is probably a better way to go. officers are on seen makings for everyone says they're supposed to. >>pam: we are glad to hear at least it is beginning to lighten up.

>>grant: it began earlier this morning when the flames were shooting out of the building was under construction. this is very close to the oakland bart station, the fire started at 2:15 a.m.. intense heat and intense flames damaging 400 ft. of bar rail that runs along the tracks. >> a bart spokesperson its announced the shutdown live on kron4 is. by 7:00 a.m., the bay area morning commute was downright chaotic. for some buses were being used to transport commuters who would normally ride bart. there were not enough buses,

not nearly enough and that they were not coming fast enough. the lines for the buses for going on for blocks. let's ask the commute. traffic was all over the fleas. ice cream just before we went on the air and for a healthful fare, the first bart service resumed through this translates to. it was the first time since the fire early this morning. the >>pam: we learned a few moments ago that bart spokespeople are telling as that the trains will be up and running at full speed by 5:30 p.m.. that is in just 10 minutes. imagine, they did all the repairs that are necessary checking the safety of the lines and getting the trains running, fixing the damage caused by the fire. i think that is pretty remarkable. >>george: they do deserve some credit.

bart replaced insulators in cover boards. they had that a communication cables that have to be repaired in order to allow trains to run in full speed most of which we have learned they will be doing in a few moments. for the people who had to drive into work today, this is what we have to contend with for the going home commute. here is a live look at traffic heading north on 101 towards the central freeway split. this is traffic leading from the north and a possible curb on to the lower deck of the bay bridge and it is jammed, not only here but back beyond the 280 interchange. you will see that the root out of san francisco is jammed in the northbound direction and back to the north end of the candlestick costly. heading south of the city is in extremely heavy ride. the macarthur maze in eastern shore freeway is heavy. the nimitz is still jammed in the shaw half share cox
