History

The M Ocean View line opened on October 6, 1925. The line was replaced with buses on August 6, 1939, but streetcar service resumed on December 17, 1944. [2]

In 2022, the SFMTA begin planning the M Ocean View Transit and Safety Project, a MuniForward project intended to improve reliability of the segment between Junipero Serra Boulevard and Balboa Park station. Initial proposals released that September called for the stop at Broad and Orizaba to be consolidated with the stop at Randolph and Bright, with a single new stop located at Randolph and Orizaba. [3] A revised proposal in May 2023 reversed this consolidation. [4] [5] As of October 2023, "quick-build" implementation of some changes is expected to begin in late 2023, with main construction beginning in 2026. [6]
