Mission Bay News & Updates
Proposed Shuttle Stop Changes
Mission Bay Shuttle is working with SFMTA to improve our stop locations and operations at transit hubs. We are considering changes to where we pick up and drop riders at all transit hubs, plus adding both Embarcadero and Civic Center to our system. These changes would not begin until late summer or early fall.
