WEEKEND L-TARAVAL RE-ROUTE, 19TH & SUNSET CLOSURES

Beginning at 8pm this evening (Friday 1/8) until Monday at 4am, the L-Taraval Line will be without light rail service between West Portal and the Zoo for construction. Muni Bus shuttles will be in place instead. The track work will take place at Taraval & 19th and also at Taraval & Sunset.

If you have any suggestions for a better route to take around this mess, leave it in the comments or @ us on Twitter.

ALSO IF you are driving this weekend, avoid 19th Ave and Sunset Blvd. According to the world's longest press release - SFPD will start off by closing Southbound 19th Ave and Northbound Sunset Blvd at 7pm this evening. After reading that press release, we kinda get the feeling that these closures may change during the weekend. Basically, when one direction of 19th is closed, the opposite direction of Sunset will be closed. Taraval will also be shutdown at the intersections with 19th and Sunset.

This work will continue next weekend and the one after that.

If you are in the area, please let us know how Traffic is by @'ing us on Twitter.

Now look what @cielogold made: Fast Pass Muni magnets made from recycled Fast Passes and bottle caps.
