the entrances that alert drivers when all of the daily use spots are gone. those signs work in conjunction with sensors in all of the parking spaces. the problem, though, is this is one of just two stations with a system like this in place. at many other bart stations around the bay area it's a free for all during the morning hours. people don't know if there are available spots in some of the garages. people spend a lot of time driving through, searching for an open space to park in and eventually some people have to go to off-site parking. and parking is getting tougher because average ridership is way up compared with last year. one rider we talked to this morning, early this morning, told us it can be a pain to find a spot and that's why she leaves for her work early. >> the main reason i started early is the parking. that's how i started. >> reporter: you said your work. i want it to come in early? >> that's exactly right because i don't want to be in that zoo. >> reporter: more than 400,000

riders use bart every day. the system, though, has just 46,000 parking spaces to offer. part of the solution to this parking crunch, according to a report by the "san francisco chronicle," the agency planning to install parking garage alert signs at four more stations within the next year. and then at the same time bart is also considering using text or email alerts to let riders know ahead of time when a particular garage is full and it's really not worth looking for a spot there. we are live in pleasant hill. alex savidge, ktvu channel 2 news. we want to go back to our developing news. tara moriarty has been at the scene of an early morning burglary and stabbing in santa clara. she joins us now with new information. tara. >> reporter: yes, we have two separate crime scenes right now. police saying that the suspect is perhaps responsible for another stabbing that happened around the corner from the home that was burglarized. if we pan to the left you can

it will be hot for some. it will be above average on the temps. you can see slight easterly breeze but generally less than 5 miles per hour. lots of sunshine today. the coast is the place to be as we'll have a very warm ocean temps. there is no fog and that easterly breeze looks like it translate into lots of 80s. warm it hot. it will be breezy for some but nothing compared to what we saw yesterday. so 80s or soft 90s. mid 80s for some near the water. here's sal. >> we are looking at traffic that is going to be busy on 80 westbound as you drive into the berkeley area out of the carquinez bridge. 23 minutes to the macarthur maze. it usually takes less than half that time when there is no slow traffic. there is plenty of it this morning in western contra costa county and alameda county at the bay bridge toll plaza. that is backed up for a 25 to 30-minute delay. we have a lot of slow traffic in the area. we also have a lot of slow traffic all over san jose.

it was over 50 years old. the valley transportation authority knew things had to change. drivers will now get to use the newly reconfigured intersection for the off-ramp from southbound 880 and the new on-ramp to southbound 880 and 280. the ramps were widened and realigned. signals are also at the new ramps there on stevens creek boulevard. >> a lot of competing traffic movements in this area. everybody is trying to get onto the freeway at the same time. get off of the freeway. we are looking at the new signals will control most of that. >> the bridge over 880 and stevens creek was widened for pedestrians and cyclists. the vta says the changes should improve safety and traffic flow. drivers will see more improvements tomorrow. the newly reconfigured off- ramps from stevens creek and 217 will open. there will be a signal there as well. this is part of a larger

construction project that will include a flyover ramp from northbound 280 to northbound 880. that, though, won't be complete until 2015. so overall, even though we're seeing these new ramps open, don't are surprised because you are still going to see construction here because of that flyover that's expected next year. reporting live from san jose, janine de la vega. it is 8:35. firefighters are preparing for another day of high fire danger. the national weather service has issued a heat advisory for the bay area. that goes into effect noon today and could be extended through saturday. tomorrow is expected to be the hottest day of the week. steve has been saying it will be unusually warm along the coast, in about the 80s, and the usual warm inlands and in the east bay and silicon valley in the 90s. record drought conditions are adding to the fire danger. cal fire has already responded to 5,000 fires this year.
