Location

San Jose/Glen Park station is a light rail stop on the Muni Metro J Church line, located in the Glen Park neighborhood of San Francisco, California. The station is located in the median of the freeway section of San Jose Avenue. A footbridge connects the two side platforms to surface streets and Glen Park station.

Background

Glen Park station is also served by BART trains, along with bus routes 23, 36, 44, 52, BART Early Bird Express route 714 and the J Bus which provides service along the J Church line during the early morning when trains do not operate.[2]

J Church and N Judah trains began using the extension of the J Church line along San Jose Avenue for carhouse moves on August 31, 1991. Although these trips were open to passengers, the extension and its stops did not open for full-time service until June 19, 1993.[1]

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. No changes were proposed for San Jose/Glen Park.[3]
