The Market Street Subway is a Subway tunnel in San Francisco, California , United States . It runs under the length of Market Street and is used by both Muni Metro and BART . The upper level is used by Muni Metro lines and the lower level is used by BART lines. BART doesn't run through the whole subway, it turns south and runs under Mission Street southwest of Civic Center Station . The eastern end of the BART level is connected to the Transbay Tube . On the Muni Metro level, the southwestern end of the Market Street Subway connects to the much older Twin Peaks Tunnel , and the northeastern end connects to the surface along the Embarcadero . The Embarcadero portal was not originally part of the Market Street Subway and was opened in 1998. It is only used by the N Judah line, but when the Third Street Light Rail Project is in operation, the K Ingleside line will continue through as well, as the T Third . The K Ingleside , L Taraval , and M Oceanview Muni Metro lines run through the entire tunnel and into the Twin Peaks Tunnel. The J Church and N Judah lines leave the tunnel through an exit that connects to Church Street. STATIONS ON THE MARKET STREET SUBWAY There are a total of seven stations in the tunnel. Four are used by BART, five by all of the Muni Metro lines, and two by only three Metro lines:
