The point is, Muni's announcing some service changes. You're just going to have to take our word for it, though, because as usual the information isn't on their website yet. (We once asked a Muni spokesperson: who takes care of putting info on the website? Nobody could answer that.) We'll post a rundown of the changes below. Are they good or bad? Who knows! Let's just implement them with no real plan and see what happens!
To be fair, Muni says that these changes are the result of "detailed assessments." If there's one thing for which Muni planners are known, it's the level of detail in their assessments. Anyway, check out these incredibly confusing changes, only some of which we are capable of comprehending:
Rail:
- N-line service will travel to Caltrain
- J-line will switch back at Embarcadero Station
- K and T-lines will become interconnected:
- K-Line will become the T line inbound at West Portal to Sunnydale.
- T-line will become the K-line in the subway outbound at Embarcadero to Balboa Park (Geneva & San Jose).
- Castro Shuttles will be restored
Bus:
- New service will be introduced: The 20-Columbus will travel
from Van Ness and North Point to Beale and Howard limited hours,
weekdays only: Inbound from 7:00 a.m.-4:00 p.m.; Outbound from 9:00 a.m.-4:00 p.m.
- The 10-Townsend service will be restored on weekends
UPDATE! We should probably also have mentioned that the changes will go live on June 30.
