Muni Reroutes Announced for Up Your Alley Street Fair in SoMa | The Locally Times
The 2026 Up Your Alley Street Fair will force the rerouting of 2 major Muni bus lines on July 26, 2026.
On July 26, 2026, the South of Market neighborhood will host the annual Up Your Alley Street Fair, an event scheduled to run from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. To accommodate the festivities, the SFMTA has announced that multiple streets will be closed starting at 6 p.m. on July 26, 2026, and lasting until 2 a.m. on July 27, 2026. The affected thoroughfares include Folsom Street between 8th and 11th streets, as well as segments of 10th, 9th, Clementina, Dore, Juniper, Ringold, Sheridan, and Tehama streets. Additionally, the intersections of 9th, 10th, and Dore at Folsom will be closed to traffic during this 32-hour window. These closures will impact 2 specific Muni bus routes: the 12 Folsom/Pacific and the 27 Bryant. Both lines will experience minor reroutes in the inbound direction for the entire day on July 26, 2026. For the 12 Folsom/Pacific line, buses will travel from Folsom and 11th streets via 11th, Bryant, 7th, and Folsom streets to return to their regular route. This change results in 6 missed stops, including Folsom and 11th, Folsom and 9th, Folsom and 8th, Folsom and 7th, 11th and Harrison, and Folsom and 6th. Similarly, the 27 Bryant line will reroute from Folsom and 11th streets via 11th, Bryant, and 7th streets to resume its normal path. This adjustment affects 5 stops, specifically Folsom and 11th, Folsom and 9th, Folsom and 8th, 11th and Harrison, and 7th and Folsom. Attendees are encouraged to utilize alternative transit options, such as the Muni Metro, which provides service to the Van Ness and Civic Center stations located just a few blocks from the event area. Other nearby bus stops remain available at 11th and Howard, Bryant and 9th, Market and Van Ness, Market and 9th, Mission and 11th, and Mission and 9th. For further assistance, residents can contact the 311 Customer Service Center at 415.701.2311. The SFMTA also recommends that passengers sign up for email or text alerts to receive real-time updates regarding these 2 transit lines.
