Kpix 5s anne makovec is at one of the muni bus stops that are also being used by tech shuttles and anne they are paying for it, too, right . They are but not as much as some people would like to see them pay to use our municipal bus stops. Im here at 4th and king by the caltrain station. You can see that decal here behind me on the normal muni bus stop. Lime colored decals indicating commuter shuttle pilot and permitted users only. Its the start of an 18month Pilot Program launching this morning six years in the making. 11 permitted Shuttle Companies can pick up commuters and 99 designated muni stops. They pay the city 3. 55 per stop to pick up commuters mainly tech workers and take them down the peninsula. But many protestors who held several demonstrations against the shuttles over the past year say they are a symbol of the citys rising cost of livingage changing demographics. To calculate the number, the real number has to be what effects does it have on the communities around the stops and how do we pay for that . Thousands of people rely on these shuttles to get to work and earn their livelihood every day. We need to stop politicizing their ability to do that. Reporter now, city leaders see these buses as an extension of mass transit. They estimate there are 35,000 shuttle boardings per day. As for enforcement they say they are going to have 10 special officers out here to make sure all of the shuttle buses are obeying the rules. Okay, anne. Thank you very much.

Kent brantly of texas and Nancy Writebol of north carolina. They are in grave but stable condition. Writebol reportedly has received an experimental serum.

When youre stuck in freeway traffic, it can be tempting to make a move. Reporter john ramos says new smart signs are designed to make driver choices easier. Were not adding more lanes on i80. Reporter 80 in the east bay is one of the most congested highways in the state and whenever theres an accidents things get stupid. Sometimes rampant lane changing and that can cause secondary accidents. Reporter so caltrans is working to make the highway smarter. Today they showed off the high tech signs that will hang over the freeway next year. Using road sensors, some signs will advise a safe speed to travel. Others, which lanes to use. And there are Message Boards that can warn drives about whats the holdup. Motorists are not armed with information. They know that something has happened ahead of them but they dont know what to do about it. Reporter but just because you know about a traffic jam ahead doesnt mean you can escape it. The only real way this project is going to ease congestion is if it can convince people to get off the freeway and for most i880 commuters that means getting on to san pablo avenue which of course causes a traffic jam there. Everybody getting off the freeway, you know, and then everybodys getting tighter, you know, and nobody cant make a turn. Reporter but caltrans knows this so they have installed so called trailblazer signs on san pablo to let commuters know when they are past the incident and its safe to get back on the freeway. The idea is to help people understand whats happening. It just gives them information and then it is up to individual motorists to make informed decisions but we are hoping that people will make smart decisions Going Forward. Reporter even if theyre not Going Forward very fast. In the east bay, john ramos, kpix 5. The entire project will cost 80 million and stretch from emeryville to the carquinez bridge. The signs will be operational early next year. Speaking of traffic, we have a situation. We have a situation brewing on 580. This accident happened around 4 15 this morning. A big rig has overturned blocking both directions of 580 at vasco. The westbound direction where the accident happened first started off west 580, three lanes are shut down. A cab flipped over blocking two lanes. East 580 so right now were looking at west 580 backed up from beyond the 205 interchange. Chp is issue an advisory telling folks to steer clear. Traffic is backed up solid beyond the 205 interchange. And they hope to have this in addition to the fuel spill in the area cleared up within the next 30 minutes or so. Well update you. The damage is done. Avoid 580. This is the second major accident to hit 580 this week. Again, west 580 jampacked from beyond the 205 interchange. Thats the hot spot. The bridge commutes are still okay. Westbound good leaving oakland heading into San Francisco. Metering lights are still off. In the silicon valley, the 880 237 interchange has been free and clear of any major problems. Just keep in mind, we are looking at muni delays this morning on the metro. Shuttle service is replacing the muni metro line between the castro and the embarcadero. Thats kcbs traffic. Lawrence . All right. Checking on the weather outside today, we have some patchy fog below and a few high clouds up above this morning but i think turning out to be a very nice friday outside. Youre going to see a lot of sunshine and these temperatures going to be heating up getting hot inland today. The temperatures may be near triple digits in some of the valleys. A little cooler sea breeze going to be kicking in for the weekend and thats going to drop down the temperatures and bring us some more low clouds and fog. Expect some hazy sunshine into the afternoon. It is a spare the air day. Air quality going to suffer with this very strong ridge of High Pressure overhead and, of course, we have hardly seen any rain. Extreme Drought Conditions have been expanded now. Exceptional across 58 of the state of california. So we are hoping for some rain but no rain in sight just yet. 108 degrees and hot though in fresno. 105 in sacramento. 108 redding. 100 yosemite. Morgan hill near 100. About 85 in san jose. 78 degrees in san mateo. East bay temperatures could see some triple digits in toward brentwood and antioch, about 99 in livermore. 91 benicia. 76 in alameda becoming mostly sunny and about 73 in sausalito. Looking out over the next couple of days, we are going to see those temperatures slowly cooling down as the sea breeze begins to pick up. Looks like we are going to cool those down temperatures around normal toward monday and tuesday. But, guys, no rain in sight. The bay area going to be staying thirsty it looks like for a while. First day of august, too. First day of august so usually we dont get that rain until the middle of october. Okay. Thank you. So while californians struggle with the drought, in detroit tens of thousands of people there are living there with no Running Water in their homes. Kpix 5s Christin Ayers met with a bay area woman who is turning many taps back on in the motor city. Reporter internet entrepreneur tiffany bell said it started as a twitter conversation about the detroit water crisis. There are people that work hard every day and they cant officially like afford to have water Running Water in their houses. Reporter 2,000 miles from tiffanys emeryville apartment marches and rallies were erupting after detroits Water Department shut off Running Water for 15,000 households whose bills were overdue. In a tweet, tiffany asked, is there a directory where people can go for water relief . Her friend replied, i would pay someones bill if i could pay directly. In a matter of hours, the website for the detroit Water Project was born. It wasnt good enough to just retweet the story and move on for the day. We actually wanted to find a way to help people.

Reporter those donors have so far paid 40,000 in water bills for 500 people in detroit without a middleman. Tiffany says she and her cofounder kristie arent getting a dime. We have been called like a new kind of philanthropy. Reporter this is merely a fix, a sort of Water Service triage. Our focus now is just making sure that people are helped essentially. Reporter she believes the impact could be lasting. I think it would be great to like, you know, keep doing this sort of thing and find other causes to work on.
