UPDATE: BART service has been restored to both tracks between Concord and Pleasant Hill, but trains are running slow, according to the agency.

As of 6 a.m. Wednesday, service was restored to both tracks, but trains were running slow, according to a BART spokesperson.

“I guess it's frustrating, it makes it a longer commute but if that’s what they got to do that’s what they got to do,” said commuter Lance Connelly.In the South Bay, Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority pulled about 40 buses out of service because of mechanical issues due to the extreme heat. Air conditioning units malfunctioned, and engines overheated, the agency said.

“It’s not definitive but we do believe it’s possibly related to the higher temperatures that we’re seeing,” said Alexa Bertola of Caltrans Caltrans says it’s not normal for the roads to buckle, but it’s happened before. Crews on Tuesday night were keeping an eye out, ready to respond in case it happens again.
