that is what they're doing now according to jim allison. is safe, that is their primary concern. right now we're starting to get a little bit of good news that this may be over before the afternoon and evening commute. this is great news for anyone that has the right bart this evening. >> a still a lot of people trying to find their way to work this morning. >> unfortunately some people have no choice but to take bart. we're talking delays of 20 minutes of words to an hour. the significant delay is the most extensive one on the yellow line. the pittsburgh-based point line, we're not really see an easy transit do any thing to help those folks, if you do not have a car you have to take bart. the glass to get off at the macarthur station. there then single tracking through the trans bay tube and eventually letting people off into san francisco. that is in delays of boards of an hour. even if you're not using trans base services morning we're still seeing systemwide delays. alternate modes of transportation, muni providing extra bus shuttles be

a bart spokesperson jim allison would join us with the update. >> what is going on? all for commuters i can tell you that the service plan has changed. we have to before lines that normally go through the end tube operating. the yellow and blue lines are operating and to put into perspective we normally have 23 going. right now we have eight. the other two lines people can transfer on the two lines that are going through and they get where they need to go but obviously, it was it more time but we are doing the best that we can to get repairs finished a we are hopeful that will have everything back going by the afternoon. >> this is death valley, 50is at least 50%. >> this is under investigation but i can tell you that it is a couple of hundred feet of the third real the was damage. the third real is what provides power to the trains. he did not have a healthy third real you will not build and run the train. right now, they're working on replacing the insulators that are apart of the infrastructure. they will determine whether they can get this in place or whether the

according to jim allison it was closer to oakland than to san francisco.fference because is born to shut down one of to what the tracks. this means said they will have to single track in both directions for the morning commute which means that it will be major delays in side of the bart system. this whole go all way. they're telling people that if you do not have to take part in you should not. how often with a mass transit agency tell you that. if they stated that it will be a big commute disaster. it is pretty quiet out here right now. last year we had something similar and people were stuck on a the platforms and they had no idea that there was a problem. according to jim they need to get people at these stations so they can let people know before they get their the there's a problem. if you can, you should take a different route or different transit bus. they are hoping to get this out. they do have text messaging alerts. they do not want people to be waiting here thinking that a train is coming. this is a big takeaway from the last accident. they're h

we heard from jim allison there's about 400 feet of track -- actually the third rail that they need toce along with 40 insulators that were damaged because of that incident inside the tube this morning. so they are working on that right now. they are hoping to get all of that cleared up and fixed by the afternoon commute. but still no promises on what's going to be going on so right now we have delays across the bay. there are trains that will sit here for 20 minutes and they will let three through at a time. so it's a bit of a rolling the dice if you are going to get on bart this morning. a lot of people are driving instead. >> reporter: that is certainly the case, holly. i want to take you out live towards the bay bridge toll plaza now because obviously all those people who can't use bart is now hopping in the cars and heading towards the bay bridge toll plaza. we heard from jim allison a bart spokesman that at the height of the compute the same number of people who drive over the bridge is the same number of people who typically use the transbay tube so no surprise they activated th
