If the 30th street BART extension would have gone through, it would have been done right about now.

I’ve communicated twice with Director Radulovich’s office in an attempt to spur this back on track, but it appears that this project is buried for some time now.

Damn!

Turning the Safeway into a mixed use residential / shopping / transit center would be more useful IMHO.

I of course also want it to connect to a N/S crosstown/midtown line. I think the Central Subway should:
- continue west to Divisidero
- go south under Divis (California, Geary, Turk, Haight) to Castro & 17th
- continue to Noe (Casto and 24th)
- intercept the 30th St BART station
- go under Bernal (with a Cortland and Ellsworth station)
- intercept the T-3rd (station would obviously be called Butchertown!)
- continue to the new Hunter’s Point development

If you *really* wanted to be ballsy, you’d make that the jumping off point for a new cross-bay tube to the Oakland Airport.

Maybe the whole thing could be a new BART line that would follow the same route but run under Geary or California instead of Lombard.

What’s a few billion between friends?

I still think it would make more sense to do it a block further south, where Mission comes closest to San Jose. There is already a BART Emergency exit there, and the Shell station at the corner seems like it would offer more or less the perfect footprint for a Bart station…

good to see there is still interest in the 30th street BART infill station. How can they get that proposal off the back burner? SF planning should have supported it.
