On Friday morning, BART train service faced a major disruption with a suspension around 5am PT due to a computer networking issue, leaving thousands of commuters stranded. Service resumed at 9:24am PT. The spokesperson noted the system's age contributes to outages, but funding for updates is in place due to Measure RR. The system, operational since 1972, serves over 165,000 riders daily, and its reliance on outdated technology raises concerns about reliability for commuters.
'The good news is we're in the process of replacing it, and we have the funding to do so because of Measure RR, and the federal government has made investments into our infrastructure.'
