“Due to a problem of trains control system, the Bart service is suspended on the system scale until further notice,” wrote Bart on his social networks.
The spokesperson, Cheryl Salter, said that AC Transit and Muni offered aid to the riders and honoring Bart tickets.
Technicians were having the situation at 6 am, according to Salter.
