Located near San Francisco’s eastern border and flanking The City’s T Third Line, the MME is an important component of SFMTA’s Third Street Light Rail Project. An ambitious two-phase development, the Third Street Light Rail Project was conceived to create new inroads to some of The City’s most traveled destinations, while improving Muni’s infrastructure, enhancing Muni’s support capabilities and ensuring system sustainability for future generations.
