The trains there draw a lot of power to get over Willow Pass.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Allison says the third rail there approaches 1,250 volts, \"near the high end\" of BART's acceptable range of voltage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Engineers believe that the power surges seen Friday were made more likely by metallic dust on the tracks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This metallic dust basically creates a pathway for the electricity to jump,\" Allison said. \"And when it does that, it damages the semiconductor parts on the underside of the cars.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The dust was left behind by recent rail-grinding.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"In the last three weeks we've been grinding between North Concord and Pittsburg stations four nights a week,\" says Allison. \"So what we're surmising is that this buildup of the dust there, and combined with the extra juice that they were getting from the third rail, that's what created the problems on Friday.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In response, BART has turned down the power. Allison says that since Friday night, that stretch of track has gotten 5 percent less voltage than before. He says that the speed of service has not been affected.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>BART is taking another measure to reduce the risk of surprise electrical spikes. The agency is ordering a pair of giant magnets to attach to maintenance vehicles.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> Now, when crews go out to grind and smooth the rails, the magnets will attract the resulting metallic dust.\u003c/p>\n\n",

And if it sounds familiar, it's because a little more than a year ago, about \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2016/03/17/bart-power-problem-damages-50-cars-adds-to-crowding-and-delays/\" target=\"_blank\">50 BART cars were knocked out of service\u003c/a> by mystifying electrical spikes that occurred in the same area. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>BART said Monday that its engineers have concluded that Friday's incident is similar to the one that occurred last year: Electricity jumped from the third rail and fried equipment on the cars.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>BART spokesperson Jim Allison said that section of track is especially prone to electrical surges. The trains there draw a lot of power to get over Willow Pass.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Allison says the third rail there approaches 1,250 volts, \"near the high end\" of BART's acceptable range of voltage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Allison says that since Friday night, that stretch of track has gotten 5 percent less voltage than before. He says that the speed of service has not been affected.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>BART is taking another measure to reduce the risk of surprise electrical spikes. The agency is ordering a pair of giant magnets to attach to maintenance vehicles.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> Now, when crews go out to grind and smooth the rails, the magnets will attract the resulting metallic dust.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

But with this new gas tax we will be serving up poverty by the gallon to millions of families and businesses around the state.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In any event, cap and trade lived to fight another day, thanks to a 2-1 ruling from the 3\u003csup>rd\u003c/sup> District Court of Appeal in Sacramento, which agreed with the state Air Resources Board that it has the authority to regulate polluters. The years-long case had clouded the future of cap and trade, with sluggish interest in the state’s auctions. The February \u003ca href=\"https://www.arb.ca.gov/cc/capandtrade/auction/feb-2017/summary_results_report.pdf\">quarterly allowance auction\u003c/a> was another bust, with just 16.5 percent of the emission allowances sold. The next auction is in May.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Analysts say that the future for cap and trade will not be truly assured until it is enshrined in law and not subject to continual legal challenges. Gov. Jerry Brown has asked the Legislature to reauthorize the program with a two-thirds vote, but even the Democrat-heavy statehouse is not committing to anything. Yet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>CALmatters.org is a nonprofit, nonpartisan news venture explaining California policies and politics.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

The money would be split between local and state governments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brown, who was fired up when he spoke to reporters after the vote, said he was proud of the Democratic Party for doing something that will help Californians.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I remember back to the Harry Truman election, when they talked about the Republican (Congress) as a do-nothing. Harry Truman went around and gave 'em hell,\" Brown said. \"Tonight we’re building things. That’s common sense, that’s the spirit of Harry Truman and that's the spirit of the Democratic Party. Proud to be a part of it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democratic Sen. Jim Beall, of San Jose, authored the measure, which he's been pushing in one form or another for more than two years. Beall told reporters he wants road projects to begin this summer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Let's get going, let's move this,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[audio src=\"http://www.kqed.org/.stream/anon/radio/tcr/2017/04/2017-04-07a-tcr.mp3\" Image=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/04/RS24860_Brown-qut-672x372.jpg\" Title=\"In Big Win for Brown, Legislature OKs Major Transportation Plan\" program=\"The California Report\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democrats hold two-thirds majorities in the Senate and Assembly, and they needed nearly every one of those votes to get the measure through. The measure squeaked by on a 27-11 vote in the Senate and 54 to 26 vote in the Assembly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a test of his political clout, Brown campaigned hard for the measure, holding rallies and meeting with moderate Democrats who were skeptical of the plan. He convinced all but two Democratic legislators -- Sen. Steve Glazer of Orinda and Assemblyman Rudy Salas of Bakersfield -- to go along. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Glazer said in a statement his constituents were overwhelmingly against the bill. His vote came after he failed to gain support for a provision that would ban strikes by BART's unionized workforce. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"AiYgA7DqzrAqD6P74iWivgC5nHH522jU\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the end, it was good old-fashioned politics that may have gotten the job done: Brown and Legislative leaders agreed to add more than $800 million in pet projects to a budget trailer bill to get the transportation package over the finish line.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The money — added to the budget trailer bill because it was too late to amend the transportation measure — would send $420 million to four Riverside County road projects, $6.3 million to a Stockton bridge-widening project, and $400 million to extend the commuter rail line, the Altamont Corridor Express, to Ceres and Merced. That train now runs from San Jose to Stockton.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The money for the Altamont Corridor Express was apparently enough to get Republican Sen. Anthony Canella, of Ceres, on board, and ensure that moderate Democratic Assemblyman Adam Grey of Modesto would vote for the bill.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I mean, I would have loved to have done something different,\" Cannella said of raising fees and taxes to pay for the plan. \"But when I'm able to deliver $400 million for ACE train, $100 million for Campus Parkway to help UC Merced ... it's probably the biggest thing that's ever happened in my district as far as investment. I feel good about that.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cannella was the only Republican in the Legislature to vote for the bill.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Riverside County money seemed to also convince Democrats Richard Roth in the Senate and Sabrina Cervantes in the Assembly to support the package.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The majority of Republicans, who say they were largely left out of negotiations, decried the tax increases used to pay for the measure, which includes a 12 cent per gallon increase to the gas tax. Sen. Jeff Stone, of Temecula, said the increase will have the biggest impact on those who can least afford it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"FagxUGHou8JZfcTjhYvY70IIEWGTVy7p\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I have senior citizens that have to choose between drugs and gasoline or food in a state where one in four children go to bed hungry every single night,” Stone said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>GOP lawmakers argued that the state is already bringing in enough revenue to pay for highway and infrastructure upgrades and should pay for projects out of the state's general fund. Democrats have said tapping the general fund would require cuts in other areas, such as education and social services. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The cost of providing emergency fixes to the state highway system has been on an upward trend for the last few years. And this winter's storms have inflicted \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/04/04/rains-cause-severe-road-damage-as-state-considers-costly-repair-plan/\">an estimated $866 million\u003c/a> in damage on roads and highways throughout the state -- the highest total in decades.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lawmakers also voted to place a \u003ca href=\"http://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=201720180ACA5\" target=\"_blank\">constitutional amendment\u003c/a> on the ballot that supporters say will restrict the new tax revenue to transportation spending. That measure must go before voters in 2018.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The measure passed Thursday night goes only part of the way toward meeting the projected spending gap for transportation infrastructure. The state says it faces a $59 billion backlog in deferred highway and bridge maintenance. The tab is estimated to be even higher -- $78 billion -- for local streets and roads. \u003c/p>\n\n",

The measure squeaked by on a 27-11 vote in the Senate and 54 to 26 vote in the Assembly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a test of his political clout, Brown campaigned hard for the measure, holding rallies and meeting with moderate Democrats who were skeptical of the plan. He convinced all but two Democratic legislators -- Sen. Steve Glazer of Orinda and Assemblyman Rudy Salas of Bakersfield -- to go along. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Glazer said in a statement his constituents were overwhelmingly against the bill. His vote came after he failed to gain support for a provision that would ban strikes by BART's unionized workforce. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the end, it was good old-fashioned politics that may have gotten the job done: Brown and Legislative leaders agreed to add more than $800 million in pet projects to a budget trailer bill to get the transportation package over the finish line.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The money — added to the budget trailer bill because it was too late to amend the transportation measure — would send $420 million to four Riverside County road projects, $6.3 million to a Stockton bridge-widening project, and $400 million to extend the commuter rail line, the Altamont Corridor Express, to Ceres and Merced. That train now runs from San Jose to Stockton.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The money for the Altamont Corridor Express was apparently enough to get Republican Sen. Anthony Canella, of Ceres, on board, and ensure that moderate Democratic Assemblyman Adam Grey of Modesto would vote for the bill.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I mean, I would have loved to have done something different,\" Cannella said of raising fees and taxes to pay for the plan. \"But when I'm able to deliver $400 million for ACE train, $100 million for Campus Parkway to help UC Merced ... it's probably the biggest thing that's ever happened in my district as far as investment. I feel good about that.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cannella was the only Republican in the Legislature to vote for the bill.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Riverside County money seemed to also convince Democrats Richard Roth in the Senate and Sabrina Cervantes in the Assembly to support the package.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The majority of Republicans, who say they were largely left out of negotiations, decried the tax increases used to pay for the measure, which includes a 12 cent per gallon increase to the gas tax. Sen. Jeff Stone, of Temecula, said the increase will have the biggest impact on those who can least afford it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I have senior citizens that have to choose between drugs and gasoline or food in a state where one in four children go to bed hungry every single night,” Stone said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>GOP lawmakers argued that the state is already bringing in enough revenue to pay for highway and infrastructure upgrades and should pay for projects out of the state's general fund. Democrats have said tapping the general fund would require cuts in other areas, such as education and social services. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The cost of providing emergency fixes to the state highway system has been on an upward trend for the last few years. And this winter's storms have inflicted \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/04/04/rains-cause-severe-road-damage-as-state-considers-costly-repair-plan/\">an estimated $866 million\u003c/a> in damage on roads and highways throughout the state -- the highest total in decades.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lawmakers also voted to place a \u003ca href=\"http://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=201720180ACA5\" target=\"_blank\">constitutional amendment\u003c/a> on the ballot that supporters say will restrict the new tax revenue to transportation spending. That measure must go before voters in 2018.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The measure passed Thursday night goes only part of the way toward meeting the projected spending gap for transportation infrastructure. The state says it faces a $59 billion backlog in deferred highway and bridge maintenance. The tab is estimated to be even higher -- $78 billion -- for local streets and roads. \u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

The SFMTA faced controversy in 2012 for ads that appeared on buses and transit shelters that said: \"In any war between the civilized man and the savage, support the civilized man.

The SFMTA faced controversy in 2012 for ads that appeared on buses and transit shelters that said: \"In any war between the civilized man and the savage, support the civilized man. Support Israel, defeat Jihad.\" At the time, transit officials said they could not remove the ads because that could be viewed as a violation of the First Amendment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Sameena Usman, director of government relations for the Bay Area chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), says that this policy change is not the solution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We stand up for our First Amendment rights,\" she told KQED. \"Our American values teach us that the best response to this offensive speech is actually more speech, and this policy is the opposite of that.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alan Schlosser, senior counsel for the San Francisco chapter of the ACLU, agrees. He said that discourse is the only way to deal with offensive public content, but he is also concerned that the policy may give transit authorities too much power.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
