The [[1 California]] is a frequent electric trolley bus route from the Outer Richmond/Sea Cliff to Downtown San Francisco, serving Presidio Heights, Pacific Heights, Nob Hill, and Chinatown via California Street and Clay (to downtown)/Sacramento (to Richmond) streets.
Clay Street was where Andrew Hallidie built the first cable car line in 1873. The Clay-Sacramento cable car line survived the 1906 earthquake but was converted to diesel buses in 1942, with route number 55. At that time, it had a competing cable car line on [[California Cable Car|California Street]], a block or two south. The current 1 California alignment in the Richmond District was initially served by streetcars that ran on Sutter/Post streets east of Presidio Ave.
The present route via Clay/Sacramento began service in 1982. The electric trolley service on Clay/Sacramento was considered an improvement due to its quiet operation and hill-climbing ability. The old 55 diesel route was known for its inability to climb Nob Hill with a full load of passengers. +
The [[12 Folsom/Pacific]] operates between Van Ness Ave & Jackson in the north and Valencia & Cesar Chavez in the south, passing through Downtown San Francisco. From Van Ness Ave, the bus travels along Pacific Ave through Russian Hill, Chinatown, and North Beach to the Financial District, then crosses [[Market Street (San Francisco)|Market Street]]. From there, it takes Folsom and then Harrison (southbound only, as northbound buses remain on Folsom) through the South of Market Area. In the Mission, the bus continues on Folsom Street to Cesar Chavez. This route runs less frequently because it is a few blocks from other more frequent routes. +
The 14 Mission bus runs the entire length of [[Mission Street (San Francisco)|Mission Street ]]'"`UNIQ--nowiki-00000000-QINU`"'<small>(from waterfront to the border with Daly City)</small><span style="display:none;"></span>. This line started as a streetcar route in 1894 and switched to buses in 1949. It's one of Muni's most frequent and utilized routes, traversing the Mission District and the Outer Mission. At the Daly City border, riders can transfer to SamTrans buses into San Mateo County. In downtown and the Mission District, the bus uses red dedicated lanes to reduce travel time. The [[14R-Mission Rapid]] route offers daytime limited-stop service along the 14 route. Between South Van Ness and Ocean avenues, the [[49 Van Ness/Mission]] route provides additional service.
This route mostly parallels [[BART]] in San Francisco and serves as an alternative if BART service is disrupted. It operates 24 hours a day and is part of the overnight [[All Nighter]] network when BART is not in service. Some trips on this line don't cover the entire route, so check headsigns for exact destinations. +
The [[14R Mission Rapid]] bus runs the entire length of [[Mission Street (San Francisco)|Mission Street ]]'"`UNIQ--nowiki-00000000-QINU`"'<small>(from waterfront to the border with Daly City)</small><span style="display:none;"></span>, with terminus at Daly City BART Station, traversing the Mission District and the Outer Mission. This route operates frequently and serves major stops (transfer points). The [[14 Mission]] provides local stop service along the entire route. In downtown and the Mission District, the bus uses red dedicated lanes to reduce travel time. Between South Van Ness and Ocean avenues, the [[49 Van Ness/Mission]] route provides additional local stop service.
This route mostly parallels [[BART]] in San Francisco and serves as an alternative if BART service is disrupted. Use the local stop 14 route when the 14R is not in service. +
The [[15 Bayview Hunters Point Express]] provides limited-stop service from Bay View-Hunters Point, covering the housing areas east of 3rd Street in the hills, to [[Market Street (San Francisco)|Market Street]] in Downtown San Francisco via 3rd Street. It was introduced in 2021 to enhance access from historically disadvantaged neighborhoods. Although it overlaps with the <span style="display: inline-flex; vertical-align: baseline; justify-content: center; align-items: center; height: 16px; width: 16px; background-color:#EE0E16;border:1px solid black;border-radius: 50%; -moz-border-radius: 50%; -webkit-border-radius: 50%;;"><b>[[T-Third Street|<span style="color:white;">T</span>]]</b></span> [[T-Third Street|Third Street]], the rail line does not offer fast and reliable enough service for Bay View.
The route adopted the number 15, which previously ran on 3rd Street before the T opened in 2007. When the T line began service, the [[8 Bayshore]] bus extended northward and took over the 15 alignment north of Market Street. +
The [[18 46th Avenue]] is a north-south local bus route serving the west side of San Francisco, running between the Palace of Legion of Honor and Stonestown via 33rd Ave, Balboa St, The Great Highway, and 46th Ave. It serves the Outer Richmond, the western edge of Golden Gate Park, Ocean Beach, the SF Zoo, and SF State. +
The [[19 Polk]] is a north-south crosstown bus route between Ghirardelli Square/Aquatic Park in the north to Hunter's Point in the south. North of Geary Blvd, the bus travels on Polk Street. The bus serves the Tenderloin, Civic Center, South of Market, Potrero Hill, and Indian Basin.
Polk Street once had cable car service between Pacific and Post, which then continued on Larkin and 9th Street. This service was operated by Sutter Street Railway from 1878 to 1906. After the 1906 earthquake, the line was converted to an electric streetcar operated by Market Street Railway. Since 1914, it competed with a city-owned streetcar line one block west on Van Ness. It was briefly converted to buses in 1939, but rail service was restored during World War II. Rail service permanently ended less than a month after the war concluded.
As a bus route, the service extended southward over Potrero Hill in 1969 and to Indian Basin in 1980. Because the route runs 1 to 2 blocks from Van Ness Ave, which offers more frequent service, the section north of Market Street often became a topic of discussion when the city faced budget issues. However, even in April 2020, during the early COVID pandemic when Muni suspended most lines due to social distancing measures, the 19 Polk route remained in service. +
This underground BART station is in Uptown Oakland, in the northern part of the downtown area. Uptown features various live entertainment venues and restaurants. +
Located in the median of Long Beach Blvd north of 1st Street, the 1st Street Station effectively serves as the final stop for the <span style="display: inline-flex; vertical-align: baseline; justify-content: center; align-items: center; height: 16px; width: 16px; background-color:#3273bc;border:1px solid #3273bc;border-radius: 50%; -moz-border-radius: 50%; -webkit-border-radius: 50%;;"><b>[[Los Angeles Metro Rail A Line|<span style="color:white;">A</span>]]</b></span> [[Los Angeles Metro Rail A Line|Line]] from Pomona North.

The [[22 Fillmore]] is a frequent circumferential crosstown bus route connecting the Marina, Fillmore/Western Addition, Mission District, and Mission Bay via Fillmore and 16th Street. This line began as a streetcar route in 1895 and switched to buses in 1948. It operates 24 hours a day and is part of the overnight [[All Nighter]] network.

The [[24 Divisadero]] is a crosstown trolley bus route between Pacific Heights at Jackson & Fillmore and the Bay View at 3rd Street & Palou, primarily via Divisadero St, Castro St, and Cortland Ave. It offers 24-hour service, with overnight trips operating only between Divisadero & Sutter in the north and Cortland & Bayshore in the east.
The 24 bus began service in 1941 as a diesel route from Pacific Heights to Castro & 25th, replacing the cable car service on Castro Street built in 1888 by Market Street Cable Railway, which extended onto Market Street to the Ferry Building. The Market Street portion of the cable car was converted to a streetcar after the 1906 earthquake, and cable cars on Castro between 18th Street and 26th Street continued until 1941. The bus route adopted the number and also replaced the "24 Mission and Richmond" streetcar route that ran on Divisadero between Page and Sacramento.
In 1982, Route 24 extended east from Castro & 25th to the Bay View, with service on Cortland that was once served by the 24 streetcar. The route was electrified the following year. +
