On the first day of VTA light-rail service in more than three months, San Francisco 49ers fans from across the Bay Area expressed excitement and relief as they once again were able to arrive at Levi's Stadium without the hassle of parking and traffic woes. 'VTA reopening is a wonderful thing,' said Patricia Carter, 60, of Palo Alto. 'And that doesn't just go for the game. Imagine the people who have to go to work and depend on it because they don't have a car.' Carter and her friend Karen Voorhees, 51, said their feet swelled like balloons after walking home from the 49ers pre-season opener earlier this month.
