Entrance Closure Alert: Montgomery St. entrance near Sutter and Sansome to close for canopy work

An entrance to Montgomery Street Station near Sutter and Sansome Streets is scheduled to close October 18th for construction of a new canopy. The entrance is expected to remain closed until Spring 2024. 

Three alternative entrances will remain open, including the entrance at Montgomery and Post Streets where a new canopy has just been completed. 

BART has finished six canopies over station entrances along Market Street and 13 more will be built, including the canopy at the entrance referenced above. The new canopies protect escalators and provide additional wayfinding, lighting, real-time information and security cameras. 

The canopy project is proceeding in conjunction with a program to replace 40 escalators and add one new escalator at the four downtown San Francisco stations.
