Broad and Capitol station is a light rail stop on the Muni Metro M Ocean View line, located in the Ingleside neighborhood of San Francisco, California. The stop has no platforms; trains stop at marked poles before crossing Capitol Avenue and passengers cross a vehicle travel lane on Broad Street to board trains. The stop is not accessible.
The M Ocean View line opened on October 6, 1925. The line was replaced with buses on August 6, 1939, but streetcar service resumed on December 17, 1944.[1]
In 2022, the SFMTA begin planning the M Ocean View Transit and Safety Project, a MuniForward project intended to improve reliability of the segment between Junipero Serra Boulevard and Balboa Park station. Initial proposals released that September called for transit bulbs at Broad and Capitol.[2] A revised proposal in May 2023 kept this design.[3] [4], "quick-build" implementation of some changes is expected to begin in late 2023, with main construction beginning in 2026.[5]
