The best thing San Francisco could have done to alleviate traffic. The original line up market is fine. But North beach and the marina has always been underserved. Busses won’t cut it. Too much traffic.
It’s over 2 years later, this project was handled by the most incompetent team ever assembled. Bankrupt most of the Business on the streets from being closed down. I’m used to seeing underground trains construction even many times bigger then this in China and Japan be done in a mater of months. What a laughing stock of the world. Except for the individuals pocketing the tax payer money. My in-laws from Shanghai came back to San Francisco two years later, they could no believe a small project like this was still being worked on. LOL 😂. My in-laws said in their country, the person responsible and maybe whole family would disappear. We need this kind of thinking here in the USA.
this project should have happened 50 years ago...when alioto proposed it to congress to use highway funds to extend bart now, it's a boondoggle...like the van ness project
@@coldfinger459sub0 alioto had no backing from sacramento or our reps. he was laughed out of dc by senators and house reps who were all in the pockets of big oil and the car manufacturers. he saw the future and couldnt get past those pols who needed to line their pockets...and now, we are paying for it.
@@thewkovacs316 about 72 years ago when my mom was a little girl she remembered when they ripped up all the Electric street cars for a public transportation all around San Francisco to be replaced with buses. San Francisco once had a world class street car transportation system with access to every part of the city.
@@alonzo9772 I wouldn't say most people use cars. BART is starting to turn into the New York Subway because so many people have been riding and packing the cars full.
Misleading title. Progress is being made on San Francisco's central homeless shelter/drug market tunnel. Have you even been to a BART station in the last decade? Hint: bring armed security with you.
they can afford a new subway but not getting the drug users out of there stations or new homless shelters and programs nice to know were the gov stands on that ^_-
Below ground is best. No accidents. No congestion. No divided neighborhoods. No loss of aesthetic qualities. No pollution. People mover.
" Time will tell" 😬🤣
It's 2021 and this is not up and running yet?? Why is it taking so much time and money for this short extension?? This is shameful and embarrassing!
It’s 2021 and this station causes so much traffic on the weekends cause of all the construction
Its 2022. Completed.

Still not open
Now, has anyone checked to see if this is another reason the Millennium Tower is tilting?
I’m ready for this! It will be amazing! And how about extending it to crisy fields? There’s a hidden tunnel there and a old trolly track route...
wrong, you mean to say fort mason near aquatic park. The tunnel is there.
This whole project will have been well worthwhile IF they bring the line to Fisherman's Wharf/Pier 39. That's as far as the (T) needs to go.
There better not be any cracks!!!
Are they building the BART Subway?
Subway system has been needed long ago
Well, most California people use cars. That's why they're not putting a lot of energy to this.

that's why we have the bart horrible at its job but it exists

"It is what it is..." You just have to groan when you hear a politician say this.

well at least the money ant going to the police
Mayor Mark Farrell ??? Who's that?
It’s 2021 and still not opened “98% complete”
Every respectable city has a subway system, the gridlock in SF is a total nightmare! Stop relying on roads already, its such an obsolete way of moving
Key word is respectable. There is no longer anything respectable about that crap hole city.
@@calikalbocalikalbo6082 exactly. the bum franshitsco is way wayy overrated
SF your transit is way better than Los Angeles I. Mean way better.
35 years old "new" system in a 150 years old city, all homeless and drugaddict are welcome to stay inside for free.
This is really boring.
