Location

In March 2014, Muni released details of the proposed implementation of their Transit Effectiveness Project (later rebranded MuniForward), which included a variety of stop changes for the J Church line. Under that proposal, the outbound platform would be moved inside Dolores Park opposite the inbound platform.[2]
