Civic Center platform-level elevator out of service

The platform-level elevator at Civic Center Station had to be taken out of service this afternoon due to a failure of the hoist ropes. Our elevator repair teams are evaluating the problem and placing an expedited order for needed materials. At this time the elevator is expected to return to service on Monday, 3/26. 

To check if an elevator is in service before arriving at a station, please call 510-834-LIFT (510-834-5438) or 888-2-ELEVAT (888-235-3828), or sign up for elevator status alerts at www.bart.gov/elevators. If you arrive at any station and find that the elevator(s) are out of service, you may contact a Station Agent to arrange for a lift van to take you to a nearby station with a working elevator.

We are very sorry for the inconvenience.
