• BART delays snarl SFO service as disruptions stretch into third day (sfchronicle.com) — BART riders near South San Francisco faced another rough commute Thursday when a train control issue near the city briefly halted service between SFO/Millbrae and Colma, with only shuttle trains and SamTrans buses keeping people moving. Although service later resumed, residual delays, ongoing repairs after a Daly City fire, and suspended Green Line trains continued to complicate Peninsula and airport trips.
