While the gridiron action ends around 6:30 p.m., city streets may become extremely congested as Muni buses are rerouted to avoid the Mission District to accommodate the expected human tide.
Muni lines will be rerouted along Mission Street, 24th Street, and 16th Street until the celebrations subside and the streets clear.

As basketball and football fans approach, parking meters outside the Chase Center will charge a special event rate of $10 per hour to deter people from circling in quest of elusive parking during events.
To maintain city arteries as open as possible, numerous streets, including parts of 16th Street and Warriors Way, will prohibit parking during these times to make room for Muni services and taxi stands.
Simultaneously, the ongoing L Taraval Improvement Project works to improve transit dependability and safety, with the SFMTA approving nearly 68% of track installation by February 23. Several bus stations will also be temporarily relocated during this renovation, making it difficult for locals to manage the ever-changing transit landscape. Even as night work on overhead lines begins from 19th to 35th avenues, an interactive bus reroutes map aims to guide commuters through this urban topography in transition.
