After years of construction, blocked streets, costly delays and a pandemic, riders will finally get a chance to catch a ride on Muni's new Central Subway beginning on Saturday.
The service extension between Chinatown and Mission Bay will begin slowly with a weekend-only soft launch, but then pick up momentum leading to full service by Jan. 7.
However, a series of delays including a fire earlier this year at one of the subway's stations as well as the COVID-19 pandemic pushed that timeline back roughly four years. The soft opening will help the agency ensure that staff are fully trained for daily operations of the subway. The T line currently turns right at the intersection of Second and King streets and continues along King Street and the Embarcadero.
