Walnut Creek BART Station Reopens After Suspicious Package Deemed Safe

A suspicious package that closed BART's Walnut Creek station for more than two hours Monday morning was safely resolved, BART officials said.

No details were given about the package itself, but the report prompted the transit agency to close the station at 200 Ygnacio Valley Road and run trains through without stopping, according to a BART.

The station was closed "out of an abundance of caution" so police could investigate the suspicious package in the station's parking garage, BART officials said.

County Connection was providing bus service between Pleasant Hill and Walnut Creek stations on buses 9 and 14.

No other information was released.
