San Francisco Municipal Railway light-rail vehicles were delayed this morning because of a problem with a cable, a Muni spokesman said.
The problem began early this morning at the Embarcadero station, significantly slowing Muni Metro service for the morning commute.
Outbound light-rail vehicles were still operating but were running very slowly, Muni spokesman Paul Rose said.
Muni set up bus shuttles to supplement the light-rail vehicles that were delayed, Rose said.
Maintenance crews repaired the damaged cable by splicing it, and service began to return to normal at about 10 a.m., Rose said.
