Orizaba and Broad / Broad and Orizaba stations consist of two light rail stops located on the Muni Metro M Ocean View route within San Francisco's Ingleside district. The inbound platform is situated at the intersection of Broad Street and Orizaba Avenue, whereas outbound trains halt on Orizaba Avenue near Broad Street. These stops lack designated platforms; riders board directly from the sidewalk by crossing a traffic lane. Accessibility features are not available at these locations.

History

The M Ocean View line commenced operations on October 6, 1925. Service was replaced by buses starting August 6, 1939, but streetcar operations were reinstated on December 17, 1944.

In 2022, the SFMTA initiated the M Ocean View Transit and Safety Project to enhance service dependability between Junipero Serra Boulevard and Balboa Park station. Early proposals suggested merging the Broad and Orizaba stops with Randolph and Bright into a single stop at Randolph and Orizaba. Nevertheless, this consolidation plan was reversed in a May 2023 update. As of October 2023, preliminary "quick-build" enhancements are scheduled for late 2023, with comprehensive construction planned for 2026.
