Early Muni Closures: Fix-It Week May 18-21, 2026

Hello,

As a community member along Muni’s light rail, I wanted to give you a heads up about early closures of the Muni Metro tunnel as part of SFMTA’s “Fix-It Week” scheduled for the week of Monday, May 18.

Fix-It Week is Monday – Thursday, May 18 – 21, 2026, with early closures of the Muni Metro tunnel starting at 9:30 p.m. 

Longer hours will allow crews to perform deeper and more thorough inspections, as well as tackle larger projects that are difficult to complete during standard service shutdowns. These maintenance projects will enhance the customer experience by creating a transit system that is faster, cleaner, safer and more reliable. 

Muni service plan during Fix-It Week hours (9:30pm – 12am): 

  • KLM Bus Shuttle will serve all Muni Metro stops between Steuart/Market and St. Francis Circle. 
  • N Judah Bus will serve between Duboce/Church and Caltrain. 
  • J and N trains will operate as a combined “interlined” route between Balboa Park and Ocean Beach for both directions with a switchover at Church/Duboce.  
  • K and M trains will operate between Balboa Park and St. Francis Circle.
  • L Taraval will operate as a bus substitution between West Portal and Wawona/46th. The L Buses will use the regular L Taraval train stops for boarding and drop-off.
  • T Third train will run its regular schedule between Sunnydale and Chinatown.   

To help people navigate during the early closures, there will be signage posted at stations and stops, audio announcements, and ambassadors available at key locations. Learn more at SFMTA.com/FixItWeek.

Thank you,

Brian
