Embarcadero Elevator reopened

On Aug. 21, the street elevator at Embarcadero Station reopened. People who rely on the elevator to enter and exit at Embarcadero can once again do so.

BART/Muni Construction Project

The elevator closure was necessary as part of a major project to reconstruct the street level enclosures on the elevators of the BART/Muni Metro Stations at Civic Center, Embarcadero, Montgomery and Powell.  Replacement work is necessary to maintain compliance with state standards, extend the life of the equipment and improve the reliability of the elevator doors.

Construction will be done one station at a time.  While an individual station is being worked on, only the street elevator at that station will be closed.  Platform elevators will stay in service.  Station work will proceed in the following order:

  • Civic Center elevator (U.N. Plaza):
    Completed.
  • Embarcadero elevator (California / Drumm):
    Completed.
  • Montgomery Street elevator (Sutter / Sansome):
    Sept. 9 – December.
  • Powell Street elevator (Stockton / Ellis):
    January – April 2010.
