About the route

The K Ingleside is a Muni Metro light rail line connecting the Balboa Park BART station and Downtown SF via Ocean Avenue and the Twin Peaks Tunnel. It serves Ingleside, West Portal, and the Castro. The line operates in a subway under Market Street and through the Twin Peaks, then runs on the surface along West Portal Avenue and Ocean Avenue. All subway stations are wheelchair accessible and offer level boarding access at all doors. However, only a few surface stops, mostly with sidewalk-height boarding islands, have mini-high platforms for accessible boarding.

Rail service ends around midnight. Service outside subway hours is provided by surface buses. 91-Owl provides overnight service along Ocean Avenue.

The K Line began service in 1918 when the Twin Peaks Tunnel opened and initially ran on the surface on Market Street. It was diverted to the subway under Market Street in 1981. From 2007 to 2023, the K Line was combined with the T Line and continued service along the Embarcadero and Third Street beyond Downtown SF. If the Central Subway temporarily closes, the T Line might again be combined with the K Line.
