Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) service in much of the East Bay continues to be disrupted Tuesday afternoon, as crews make repairs following a fire near the San Leandro station.

A fire reported on the BART train tracks just south of the San Leandro station early this morning is expected to affect service on the transit system into the late afternoon or evening hours.

Bay Area Rapid Transit, the main commuter rail system for the region, was forced to close for most of the Friday morning commute.
