About the New "Wave" Shelters

Muni’s new “Seismic Wave” Transit Shelter may well be the most sustainable shelter under the sun. Form and function combine with green technology to create a compelling, iconic structure designed to meet the aesthetic and environmental needs of a City at the forefront of new age technology.

Green features:

• Wave-shaped plastic canopy composed of 40 percent post-industrial recycled content.
• Galvanized steel beams created with 60 to 70 percent reclaimed product.
• Solar-powered photovoltaic cells can generate up to 100 watts of electricity — enough to power high efficiency fluorescent backlit information panels, super efficient rooftop lighting and NextBus and Push to Talk technologies.
• Up to 40 percent of all energy captured on the solar-powered model can be recycled back into the power grid.

Other features:

• Shelter lengths vary from 8 to 16 feet with ergonomically designed seats for up to six customers.
• Steel support columns vary in length to accommodate San Francisco’s hilly terrain.
• Open back panel creates improved accessibility.
