Maybe the world is ending on Saturday. We so very rarely hear about Muni service expansion, but it’s true, folks.

At an estimated cost of $1.8 million, and with the aim of reducing crowding on one of its busiest routes, the SFMTA will next month begin offering morning and evening weekday express shuttle service from the Outer Sunset to the Financial District along the N-Judah’s path. According to SF Appeal:

Morning peak express buses will make 11 stops between 48th Avenue and 19th Avenue along Judah Street before beelining to Bush and Montgomery streets.

Similarly, evening express service will begin at Sutter and Sansome streets and will run express to 19th Avenue and Judah Street before making 11 local stops.

So, Outer Sunset Muni riders, we wanna know: What you think about this new service? It’s set to begin on June 13. Yea or nay?

Living in San Francisco Means…

Our pal Broke Ass Stuart and the amazing artist Wendy MacNaughton teamed up to talk about what living in San Francisco means. In their Bold Italic feature, Stuart and Wendy captured all the flavors of San Francisco living. And that most definitely included our lives on public transportation:

It means riding the Night Owl and thinking you’re gonna get mugged by the teenagers in the back. Taking the 22 from the Marina to the Dogpatch and observing the city’s vast spectrum of existence. Sitting on BART and trying not to think about what lives inside those cushions. Riding Muni and seeing feats both beautiful and wretched within seconds of each other.
