BART details
BART and Muni are working together to provide free Muni bus rides between the 16th St./Mission and 24th St./Mission stations following the 8 p.m. closure of the 16th St./Mission Station on Halloween, October 31, 2007. BART will also provide free paratransit rides for disabled and mobility impaired passengers between the two stations.
All you need to do is to show your BART ticket to a Muni bus driver to take advantage of the free rides between 16th St./Mission and 24th St./Mission stations. The rides will be free just on Muni’s #14 Mission bus and #49 Mission/Van Ness bus after 8 p.m. and only between the two BART stations.
Additionally, if you are disabled or mobility impaired, you can take a free paratransit shuttle that will be operating between the two stations after 8 p.m. You simply need to wait by the surface level elevators at each of the two stations where either signs or shuttle staff will direct you to the free paratransit shuttle.
