Public Transportation
BART
Bay Area Rapid Transit, or BART, is one of the San Francisco Bay Area’s most popular forms of public transportation. There are multiple main train lines spanning from different areas like a web. On weekdays, each train runs every 15 minutes, while on weekends, they run every 20 minutes. Before arriving at a BART station, figure out where it is you are trying to go and which station is closest to that destination, using this planning tool.
Muni
Muni is San Francisco’s bus and metro system that runs throughout the city, operating buses, trains, cable cars and the F-line heritage streetcar. Muni buses remain above ground and on streets while Muni Metro runs on rails and sometimes go underground. Bus stops come in many forms: small bus shelters, yellow paint on street poles, and white paint on streets. Metro stops can be found on an island in the middle of the street and in underground stations. Using the Metro Map, find the nearest Metro to your location. Find more information on how to use Muni and Muni Metro.
Cable Cars and Streetcars
Cable cars and street cars are San Francisco’s historic public transit cars. Cable cars are located downtown and run on three lines: Powell-Hyde, Powell-Mason, and California Street. The F-Line streetcar runs up and down Market Street all the way to Fisherman’s Wharf. Pay the conductor onboard or purchase tickets in advance at multiple locations or via smartphone using the MuniMobile app. Exact change is your only option when you are onboard the vehicles.
