Mayor London Breed and the SFMTA announced Monday all subway stations will return to service on May 15.
The city will also reopen the historic F-line street car and debut the addition of multiple Muni Metro upgrades, including Wi-Fi service.
The announcement is another step towards a full reopening of the transit agency.
Muni officials in late March targeted a return to pre-pandemic service levels by the beginning of next year, an estimated 85% by January 2022.
“Getting San Francisco moving forward requires us doing everything we can to get Muni back to full service,” Mayor Breed said. “As we reopen more businesses and activities, it’s essential that our transit service is able to accommodate more passengers and help people get around our city. This weekend, Muni subway service, the F-Line, and more full routes are returning, and Muni is coming back even stronger with new improvements like Wi-Fi in the subway tunnels.”
The N Judah Metro rail service will resume its full route between Ocean Beach and 4th and King Street (Caltrain), and the T Third will be extended to West Portal and then continue on, running as the K Ingleside to Balboa Park Station.
Muni also announced the addition of a temporary bus route called the 36/52 Special. The new line will serve the hilltop neighborhoods of Forest Hill, Miraloma, and Sunnyside in a loop between Forest Hill Station and Glen Park Station.
91% of San Franciscans are now within two to three blocks of a Muni stop, according to a press release.
The addition of WiFi on the subway is due to routers and cellular antennas that have been installed in stations and tunnels.
Other upgrades include wayfinding and directional signs at Castro and Church stations, overhead line enhancements and rail grinding, and public art at the entrance and exit at Castro and West Portal stations.
“There is no economic recovery without public transit,” Jeffrey Tumlin, SFMTA Director of Transportation said. “Our staff is committed to keeping San Francisco moving and is working tirelessly to bring Muni service back better than ever.”
