Muni service resumes after overnight repairs

Repairs on downed San Francisco Municipal Railway overhead lines in the Castro area were completed early Friday morning, eliminating any disruption to the a.m. commute according to Muni officials.

Around 2 p.m. Thursday overhead lines came down near Muni's Church station at Church and Market streets, Muni spokesman Paul Rose said.

Repair work disrupted the K, L and M light-rail lines and shuttle buses were used in their place between the West Portal and Church stations, Rose said.

Repairs were completed around 1 a.m. this morning. Regular service will resume on the three affected subway lines Friday morning, according to a Muni advisory.

Thursday evening crews finished repairing wires that had come down at a different location at Van Ness Avenue and Market Street also around 2 p.m. when a large semi truck carrying cars snagged overhead wires, Rose said.
