The annual Independence Day fireworks display and celebration on July 4th at Aquatic Park and Fisherman’s Wharf will result in temporary street closures, service changes and potential delays for public transit customers. As many as 200,000 people may attend this annual event. Typically, events of this size create access problems for all pedestrians, transit customers, bicyclists and motorists, so please be aware that the necessary street closures, combined with high pedestrian traffic and San Francisco’s hilly topography, will create temporary access barriers for people with disabilities. SFMTA Accessible Services strongly suggests that customers with disabilities travel to the celebration on special Muni shuttle buses to Fisherman’s Wharf or on accessible regular bus routes and rail lines. Some of these services will be rerouted on July 4. July 4th Service on Muni During July 4th Muni will provide the following special, accessible bus shuttle services on The Embarcadero: • Ferry Building to Fisherman’s Wharf from 2 p.m. to 8: 30 p.m. • CalTrain to Fisherman’s Wharf from 2 p.m. to 8: 30 p.m. • Van Ness & Market to Aquatic Park from 2 p.m. to 8: 30 p.m. The following is a summary of service changes to regular Muni routes and lines for Friday, July 4: Please note that service from the Ferry Building to Fisherman’s Wharf on the historic streetcar F Line will be provided by bus shuttles, not historic streetcars, beginning at 2 p.m. F Line streetcar service will continue to run on Market Street the remainder of the day.
