Mission Bay Updates
OWENS STREET BUS STOP RELOCATED
As of April 2nd, the bus stop in front of 1650 Owens St. has relocated to the opposite side of the street. West route buses stop just north of the semi-circular driveway at the Mission Bay Conference Center -- underneath the purple "UCSF" sign, and continue northward to use the newly opened Mission Bay Circle to connect to Berry Street.
Passengers from 1700 Owens should catch the bus in the BART-bound direction at Campus Way (the same stop they use to get off the bus when arriving to Mission Bay).
This change should help West route buses avoid delays at the 16th/7th Street intersections in the BART-bound direction. We'll make minor schedule adjustments as needed once new travel times are established, but for now, there are no changes to the timetable.

POST-GAME TRAFFIC PLAN
Street closures and restrictions on streets adjacent to AT&T Park are in effect beginning in the seventh inning of home games and last at least 40 minutes post-game.
In particular, no northbound traffic is allowed over the Fourth Street Bridge, and King Street is closed in the east-bound direction between 2nd and 3rd Street. Buses, including the Mission Bay Shuttle (East Route), are allowed. However, when traffic is at a standstill, the East route detours from the Nektar stop southward to 16th/Owens/Berry streets. Customers using the China Basin Landing bus stop will be picked up in front of Philz on Berry Street instead of on Fourth St. This detour is in effect on day games from 4:30pm to 6:30pm. We notify customers via Twitter when this detour is in effect at other times.
Vehicular traffic is directed south on either Third, Terry Francois or Fourth Street from the Giants' surface parking lots A, C and D.
Access to highway 80 towards the East Bay is via 16th Street or 7th Streets to Bryant. Southbound traffic to highway 280 is via Third Street to Mariposa. Vehicles heading to 101 South can take Third Street; those going to 101 northbound should use 16th Street to South Van Ness.

special event parking rates NOW IN EFFECT
Baseball season is here, and with it, come new Special Event parking rates at all street meters in the Mission Bay area.
Rates within a few blocks of the ballpark are $7/hour during all games and other 'special events' at AT&T Park; rates are $5 as you get further away from the park.
Special Event rates will be enforced during all games -- day or night, weekday or weekend.
The $7 per hour rate applies to those streets closest to the ballpark -- starting at Mission Bay Blvd South and as far west as 5th and Bryant Streets. South of Mission Bay Blvd South and beyond Braynt/Fifth Street, rates are $5 per hour to begin with. Some meters have four hour limits; others are unlimited on game days.
On non-game days, street meters in Mission Bay now operate until 10pm Monday through Saturday and from noon til 6pm on Sundays.
Rates are $0.25 per hour based on availability after 6pm.
The goal of metered parking is to ensure availability at all times and lessen the traffic and other impacts of drivers circling the area in their search for parking. There are over 2,000 parking spaces in the Giants' parking lots adjacent to the ballpark, and 3,000+ spaces in private lots that surround AT&T Park.
Pricing is periodically adjusted up or downward, based on availability. Adjustments are made in $0.25 per hour increments.
