The '''J Church''' is an urban rail transit line of the Muni Metro system in San Francisco, California. It has both light rail and streetcar segments. The line runs between Embarcadero station and Balboa Park station through Noe Valley. Opened on August 11, 1917, it is the oldest and has the lowest ridership of all of the Muni Metro lines.<ref name="srtp">{{Cite web |date=December 2019 |title=Short Range Transit Plan: Fiscal Year 2019 - Fiscal Year 2030 |url=https://www.sfmta.com/sites/default/files/reports-and-documents/2019/11/12-3-19_item_15_short_range_transit_plan_fy19-30.pdf |publisher=San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency}}</ref>{{rp|21, 47}}

==Route description== thumb|left|A train on the private right-of-way in the median of San Jose Avenue The inbound terminal is at Embarcadero station. The line runs west through the Market Street subway to a portal on Duboce Avenue, before turning onto Church Street. The line continues south on Church Street to 18th Street. Between 18th and 20th Street, the line cuts through Dolores Park in a private right-of-way featuring a 9% grade, the steepest section of the Muni Metro system.<ref>{{Cite web |title=General Information |url=http://archives.sfmta.com/cms/rhomemu/genmuinfo.htm |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161203183047/http://archives.sfmta.com/cms/rhomemu/genmuinfo.htm |archive-date=December 3, 2016 |access-date=September 20, 2016 |publisher=San Francisco Metropolitan Transportation Agency}}</ref> After crossing 20th Street, it cuts across the blocks east of Church, around a steep hill and returns to Church Street at 22nd Street in Noe Valley. The J then follows Church to 30th Street, then to San Jose Avenue and Geneva. Between Randall and Cotter Streets, there is a right-of-way in the middle of San Jose Avenue. At the end of the line, the J loops around the Metro yard at San Jose and Geneva, alongside Balboa Park station.

===Operation=== The J Church begins service at 5 am on weekdays and 6 am on weekends, and runs until midnight. Daytime headways are every 15 minutes; nights and weekend mornings are every 20 minutes. Unlike the other Muni Metro lines, there is not a corresponding overnight Owl bus during the hours that rail service is not running. {{clear left}}

===Extension to Balboa Park=== thumb|left|An outbound J Church car turns from 30th Street onto San Jose Avenue in 1993, two months after the start of all-day service on the extension south of 30th. The outer end of the line was originally at Church and 30th Streets, where streetcars used a wye to turn around.

This trackage was laid along the Bernal Cut, the former right-of-way of the San Francisco & San Jose Railroad.<ref name="sfmta-100 Years" />

This extension of the J-line to the Metro Center now also provides vintage F Market cars a connection to the adjacent Cameron Beach Yard, where they are stored when not in service. Occasionally J-Church streetcars use the siding at 30th and Church as a terminus during rush hours, or during irregular operations.

The 19th Avenue Platform & Trackway Improvement Project originally included pocket tracks to allow J Church trains to continue past Balboa Park with service to Stonestown. Due to community backlash, the compromise plan did not include the facilities necessary to run joint J-M service.<ref name=Chronology /> {{clear left}}

===Later changes=== [[File:J Church train crossing over near Market Street, December 2020.jpg|thumb|left|An outbound train switching back towards Balboa Park Station from the Duboce terminal in December 2020]] In March 2014, Muni released details of the proposed implementation of their Transit Effectiveness Project (later rebranded MuniForward), which included a variety of changes for the J Church line intended to improve reliability and decrease travel times. The proposed changes included the removal of two stops (Liberty and Church and 30th Street), minor relocations of several other stops, construction of boarding islands and transit bulbs, and transit-only lanes on three blocks of Church Street, plus an increase in frequency from 9.5-minute headways to 8-minute headways during the morning peak.<ref name="TEPplan">{{TEP Chapter 3 |pages=52–56}}</ref> One element – dedicated transit/taxi lanes and left turn restrictions on Church Street between Duboce Avenue and 16th Street – was chosen for implementation as a pilot project to test its effectiveness. The red-painted dedicated center lanes (for use also by the 22-Fillmore bus) and turn restrictions were added in March 2013. The project proved to reduce travel time and improve reliability on both rail and bus, while not significantly increasing travel time in private automobiles.<ref name="redlanesreport">{{Cite web |date=February 2015 |title=Church Street Transit Lanes: Final Report |url=https://www.sfmta.com/sites/default/files/agendaitems/2015/6-2-15%20Item%2012%20%20Church%20St.%20Rapid%20Pilot%20-%20Final%20Report_1.pdf |publisher=San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency}}</ref> The SFMTA Board made the changes permanent in June 2015.<ref>{{Cite news |last=Chin |first=Jerrold |date=June 3, 2015 |title=Church Street transit-only lanes become permanent |work=SFBay |url=https://sfbay.ca/2015/06/03/church-street-transit-only-lanes-become-permanent/}}</ref>

The line was temporarily through-routed with the surface section of the K Ingleside line from June&nbsp;25 to August&nbsp;24, 2018, due to the Twin Peaks Tunnel shutdown.<ref name="tpt">{{Cite web |date=June 25, 2018 |title=Twin Peaks Tunnel Improvements |url=https://www.sfmta.com/projects/twin-peaks-tunnel-improvements-0 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180626232234/https://www.sfmta.com/projects/twin-peaks-tunnel-improvements-0 |archive-date=June 26, 2018 |publisher=San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency}}</ref> In November 2019, the SFMTA announced plans for near-term changes, including the closure of the Church and 30th Street stop and the addition of a traffic signal at Cesar Chavez Street. A pilot program was also to use a surface turnback on The Embarcadero in an effort to reduce terminal delays at Embarcadero station.<ref>{{Cite web |date=November 18, 2019 |title=J Church Project |url=https://www.sfmta.com/sites/default/files/reports-and-documents/2019/11/openhouseboards_20191118_final.pdf |publisher=San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency}}</ref>

Some changes will be implemented in a "quick-build" phase in late 2023 and early 2024, while most construction will take place in 2025–2027.<ref name=2023mtabppt />

In December 2021, the SFMTA indicated a possible use of historic street cars to provide a one-seat service on the J Church to Embarcadero using existing surface tracks on Market Street as a future alternative to running the J Church in the subway tunnel.<ref>{{Cite press release |title=Approved: 2022 Muni Service Plan |date=December 10, 2021 |publisher=San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency |url=https://www.sfmta.com/blog/approved-2022-muni-service-plan |last1=Maguire |first1=Mariana}}</ref>

In May 2024, the Federal Transit Administration awarded the SFMTA $4.7 million to construct accessible platforms at eight Muni Metro stops, including five J Church stops.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.transit.dot.gov/funding/grants/grant-programs/all-stations-accessibility-program-fy24-projects |title=All Stations Accessibility Program FY24 Projects |date=May 28, 2024 |publisher=Federal Transit Administration}}</ref><ref>{{cite press release |url=https://www.transit.dot.gov/about/news/biden-harris-administration-announces-343-million-modernize-transit-stations-improve |title=Biden-Harris Administration Announces $343 Million to Modernize Transit Stations, Improve Accessibility Across the Country |date=May 28, 2024 |publisher=Federal Transit Administration}}</ref>

==Station listing== Some stops have concrete boarding islands, while others require passengers to board from the street. Some stops have raised platforms for accessibility. While most other lines in the rail system can be run in two-car configurations, the J line is almost always run with a single car in order to accommodate the stops in the right-of-way, which are not long enough to have two light rail cars with open doors simultaneously. {| class="wikitable" |- !Station/Stop !Neighborhood !Muni Metro lines !Notes and major connections |- |{{access icon}}
