Golden Gate Transit (GGT) customers should expect delays on all trips into San Francisco throughout the weekend closure.

On FRIDAY, JULY 10, GGT service will be impacted as follows:

  • Commute service: MODIFIED WEEKDAY service - select trips on several routes will NOT operate to allow for more reliable and efficient service. Routes 92 and 93 will NOT operate.

Golden Gate Ferry (GGF) will add service throughout the weekend on both the Larkspur and Sausalito routes, including late night trips on Friday from Larkspur, early morning and late night trips on Saturday and Sunday from Larkspur, and late night trips on Saturday and Sunday from Sausalito. In addition, the Giants Ferry will operate between Larkspur and AT&T Park, and Giants Ferry tickets will likely sell out early (if a desired Giants Ferry trip is sold out, customers may ride our regular ferry services to the SF Ferry Building and walk to the ballpark).  Click here for GGF timetables.
