Broad and Orizaba / Orizaba and Broad stations consist of two light rail stops serving the Muni Metro M Ocean View route, located within San Francisco's Ingleside district. The inbound platform is situated at the intersection of Broad Street and Orizaba Avenue, while outbound vehicles halt on Orizaba Avenue near Broad Street. These stops lack dedicated platforms; riders wait along the sidewalk and must cross a traffic lane to board. Additionally, the stations do not offer accessible facilities.
History
The M Ocean View line commenced operations on October 6, 1925. Service was suspended in 1939 in favor of bus transit but was reinstated as a streetcar line in 1944.
In 2022, the SFMTA launched the M Ocean View Transit and Safety Project aimed at improving service dependability between Junipero Serra Boulevard and Balboa Park station. Early proposals suggested merging the Broad and Orizaba stop with Randolph and Bright into a single location at Randolph and Orizaba. Nevertheless, this consolidation plan was reversed in a 2023 update. As of October 2023, "quick-build" enhancements are planned to commence in late 2023, followed by comprehensive construction beginning in 2026.
