Randolph and Arch serves as a light rail stop on the Muni Metro M Ocean View route, situated within San Francisco's Ingleside Heights district. This station does not feature conventional platforms; instead, passengers embark by crossing a parking lane. To ensure accessibility, mini-high platforms are installed beyond Arch Street on the far side.

History

The M Ocean View line commenced operations on October 6, 1925. Bus service took over on August 6, 1939, but streetcar service was reinstated on December 17, 1944.

In 2022, the SFMTA launched the M Ocean View Transit and Safety Project, targeting enhanced service dependability between Junipero Serra Boulevard and Balboa Park station. Early plans from September 2022 did not propose modifications at Randolph and Arch. Nonetheless, a revised plan in May 2023 suggested installing transit bulbs designed to accommodate the first car of trains. As of October 2023, a "quick-build" phase is anticipated to begin late in 2023, with comprehensive construction scheduled for 2026.
