Commute, many passengers know all too well that the Opioid Crisis thats plaguing bay area cities has also become a battle for the transit system. Just yesterday at the North Berkeley station transit ambassadors used three doses of narcan to revive an unresponsive man who fell on the floor of a train. This is something that happens almost daily somewhere across the b. A. R. T. System. Our Wilson Walker has learned the number of Overdose Deaths on b. A. R. T. Just this year has climbed past last years total. Where i grew up at in arizona there was nothing to do but drugs, you know. Reporter sitting at the very end of the civic Center Platform just as b. A. R. T. Is about to shut down for the night, one rider about to make their way back to the east bay. Im currently homeless and i have a motor home. My motor homes parked in castro valley. I just came over here to score, you know, but its cheaper over here to get it, you know. Incredibly cheap. Reporter john is among those who come to San
