Disabled access

Even though Muni Metro is accessible, accessing the system is quite complicated given the various types of stations and stops on the systems.

At all underground stations, elevators are available between surface and concourse, and between the concourse and platform. Call Muni at 311 or (415) 554-6999 for updates on elevator availability.

All surface stations that feature high-level platforms (like those on the T line) are accessible through ramps.

For the rest of the system, select surface stops (see map above with grey circles) provide wheelchair access through wayside wheelchair ramps. To board Muni at these stops, wait on the top of the ramp.

Wheelchair riders should board on the front door of the front car.
