SFMTA Rail Improvements along N Judah Line Resume
Regular N Judah light rail service will end at Church and Duboce streets. From there, Muni bus shuttles will substitute for rail service to deliver Muni customers to the end of the line at Ocean Beach/La Playa. Customers can get on and off the shuttle bus at all regular N Line stops except those at 19th Avenue and Sunset Boulevard.
During construction hours, Judah Street will be closed to through traffic in both directions at 19th Avenue and Sunset Boulevard. Detour signs will guide drivers to alternate routes. Track work requires one direction to be closed on 19th Avenue and Sunset Boulevard at Judah Street. The closures on 19th Avenue and Sunset Boulevard will be coordinated, i.e. when the northbound lanes of 19th Avenue are closed, the northbound direction of Sunset will be opened and vice versa. This weekend, the closures will be northbound 19th Avenue and southbound Sunset Boulevard. Police officers will be on site detouring traffic onto parallel streets during the construction. Slow traffic is expected in the area. Motorists are advised to use alternate routes when possible.

Nov. 14 – 16 was the first weekend of construction for this project. The work was originally scheduled to be completed by 5 a.m. on Monday, Nov. 16, but was delayed because the concrete used in the project did not harden as quickly as designed. The project team has consulted with the contractor to replace the concrete mix for all subsequent work. The SFMTA continues to coordinate with the contractor on an investigation of this issue. All concrete poured last weekend has been tested and certified as safe for light rail operation.
Muni resumes track improvement work* on the N Judah light rail line tomorrow at the intersections of Judah Street and 19th Avenue and Judah Street and Sunset Boulevard.
San Jose Avenue Construction
Construction on San Jose Avenue between Geneva Avenue and Niagra Avenue will require the closure of both northbound lanes and on southbound lane of San Jose Avenue from 11 p.m., Friday to 4 a.m., Monday.
Beginning at 1:45 a.m., Saturday, the M Ocean View Muni line will turn back at Plymouth and Broad streets. A Muni bus will provide service between Plymouth Avenue and Broad Street and San Jose and Geneva avenues for the entire service day.
