Balboa BART station reopens after major medical emergency

The Balboa Park BART Station in San Francisco reopened Friday evening, following a brief closure due to a major medical emergency, BART officials say.

The station was closed as of 9:30 p.m. but reopened about an hour later. The closure initially impacted the SFO, Millbrae, Daly City and East Bay directions, but is still causing major system wide delays.  

A BART spokesperson says the emergency involves a person on the trackway and that they are alive and talking. 

Muni provided bus service between the 24th Street Mission and Daly City BART stations.
