MOLRP is a two-year project to replace the overhead electrical lines in the subways. Phase I fixed the electrical lines in the underground from the Embarcadero to the Church Station and Phase 2 will replace the electrical lines from Church Station to West Portal.

How will this affect you, the commuter? Well, for those of you riding the M,L, or K lines, it'll mean having to take MUNI buses at night to get you from the Van Ness station to West Portal or vice versa. So, if you are going from the Embarcadero to wherever the M,L, or K train takes you to, you'll be going from the Embarcadero to the Van Ness Station as you normally would, but then you'll have to hop on a bus that will take you from Van Ness to West Portal and from West Portal you'll hop back on the Metro. Same thing in the opposite direction

Sucks to be you.

This all starts tonight and will affect riders riding from 9 PM til 7 AM. A shuttle bus is expected to run every six minutes.
