Macarthur BART station reopens after person struck by train, expect residual delays

OAKLAND, Calif. -- BART officials say normal train service has been restored at the MacArthur station after a collision occurred between a train and a person Thursday afternoon.

The station had been closed as of 5:40 p.m. because the coroner had arrived to tend to the person who died in the collision.


BART officials said the medical emergency was first reported around 3 p.m.

Just before 5 p.m. northbound trains were not stopping at the station, but passengers headed toward Warm Springs or San Francisco were able to board their trains as usual.
