Church and 29th Street / Church and Day stations

Church and 29th Street (inbound) and Church and Day Street (outbound) are a pair of light rail stops on the Muni Metro J Church line, located in the Noe Valley neighborhood of San Francisco, California. The stops opened with the line on August 11, 1917. Until the 1991 extension to Balboa Park station, the line's outer terminus was just to the south at 30th Street. Accessible mini-high platforms were added in 1997.

Location

In March 2014, Muni released details of the proposed implementation of their Transit Effectiveness Project (later rebranded MuniForward), which included a variety of stop changes for the J Church line. No changes were proposed for the stops at 29th Avenue and Day.[2] In 2020, Muni proposed to close the inbound stop at 29th Street in favor of the stop at 30th Street.[3]
