The following Van Ness Improvement Project construction forecast is subject to change due to weather or unforeseen conditions. For more project details, please visit sfmta.com/vanness.

Work is planned over the next months to create two construction zones: one southbound on Van Ness Avenue from Sutter to McAllister streets, and another northbound from Jackson to Lombard streets. These work areas will be approximately five feet from the building line to approximately the center of the roadway.

To make space for these construction zones, the following changes will occur:

  • Blue curb parking for people with disabilities and loading zones is being temporarily relocated (see map for locations)
  • Bus stop located on southbound Van Ness at McAllister Street has been relocated south a few hundred feet south from its original location at the southwest corner

Project staff is reaching out directly to businesses and residents on blocks that are impacted by these changes. See the full schedule of expected activities below.

Those who travel in and through the area are advised to take alternate routes and plan for delays.

Monday, September 4: Happy Labor Day! No work is scheduled.

Tuesday, September 5, through Friday, September 8: Traffic control maintenance and construction site preparation will be conducted on Van Ness between Lombard and Mission streets.

Saturday, September 9: Median and sidewalk tree pruning is scheduled for the blocks from McAllister to Golden Gate, Ellis to O'Farrell, Post to Sutter and Filbert to Lombard streets.

Monday, September 11, through Friday, September 15: Traffic control maintenance and construction site preparation will be conducted on Van Ness between Lombard and Mission streets.
