Time. So it was down the whole yeah, it was maybe, probably almost to the gates. Thats how long the line was. Reporter did they explain what was going on . No. Klm 11 00 in the morning, we have to wait almost five hours. They have a flight for 11 hours and they just come out. Reporter sfos duty manager said approximately 30 flights landed during the audit and 20 airlines were affected. People were coming from singapore, paris, listen do lon. The cbp will monitor the incident. It doesnt seem it was of malicious intent as of yet. Luz pena, abc 7 news. Thank you. Here at abc 7 news were committed to building a better bay area and finding improvements that impact your quality of life. Building a bay area takes buildings, thats what bart will do in the east bay all weekend. Both the bart tracks and the lanes on highway 24 will be closed starting tonight near lafayette. It lowill be a headache for riders and drivers with 30 to 40minute delays and this is what it takes to make improvements. It is something youll be dealing with as bart making progress. But it may not happen as soon as you think. Yeah, we have Live Team Coverage in both places and both projects. We begin with Leslie Brinkley with the bart impact in the east bay. Reporter im here at the lafayette bart station. This will be the epicenter of things. This is the busiest bart lane between walnut creek saturday and sunday and starting at 11 00 tonight, a couple lanes on eastbound 24 are going to be shut down as part of this bart work. It could be quite a mess. These are the 13 days that bart will not run between walnut creek in both directions including the upcoming labor day weekend. Ist its going to affect traffic flow and getting to and from the airports. It certainly has the potential to have a significant impact. Reporter it starts tomorrow. Do you know bart will be closed between orinda and walnut creek this weekend . No idea. I did not know that. I had no clue. Reporter there are signs up on the platforms, bart has taken out ads and worked with the affected cities so live and learn. This weekend will be an experiment to replace the original track and dities, bart will same timultaneously have t close two lanes between highway 24 to get equipment to the track. It will cut highway 24s capacity in half all weekend long. The bart system goes directly down the median of highway 24 because of that we have limited space to work with. It requires the use of some very large equipment including a 265ton crane and buzz of theca that we need the lanes. Reporter trains will be replaced with buses between the walnut creek, lafayette and and orinda bus stations. Expect 30minute delays. So lets look at this list again. Dates bart will be shut down between orinda and walnut creek and two lanes of eastbound 24 will be closed. I think people will get probably pretty confused and it will be hard to travel. Yeah, its going to be a mess. Reporter bart says the work that they are doing and the shutdowns will lead to a smoother ride for passengers andless noisy trains. If we can endure the 13 days of closures. In lafayette, Leslie Brinkley, abc 7 news. Got to deal with it. Thank you. Happening now in san jose, members are meeting on an update to the project that would bring bart to the south bay. Some stations are built but still closed. Abc 7 news is live with the details. Reporter i spoke with the bart board president before the start of the meeting. He says december 31st is the target date for when the new stations will open but they have had problems in the past he says they are in a critical time and what is needed now is cooperation. The new bart station in san jose looks ready but its not. It looks like its ready. It smells ready. Reporter Jorge Martinez is the project manager from phase one. He is on wards to the station in north san jose. The big challenge right now are technical issues. Very sophisticated train controls. Everything is in markings. The Commission Part of a metro like this is the most technically difficult. Reporter the technical issues have set the project back by months. But there have been other problems between bart and the vta off the track, as well. In the next couple, three or four months well be transferring the responsibility to bart. Reporter bart board president says before bart takes over, a few final items must be worked out such as operational issues and revenue sharing. For example, our train control system serves the entire bart system but a percentage of those rides are taking place in santa clara so were kind of working through some of the reimbursements. Reporter there may be a few remaining issues but big ones and could cause further delays if there is no agreement and thats not what passengers who want out of their cars want to hear. Lets make it happen so that especially i hear a lot of facebook and people coming. So that will be more traffic on the roads. Reporter now, they also spoke about phase two of the bart extension from East San Jose on wards to santa clara but that program is in the design phase and wont likely be ready for another several years. Abc 7 news devoted a week to covering bart as part of our commitment to building a better bay area. We rode trains all day long. You can see the stories on abc7news. Com better bay area.
