Super Bowl 50 traffic and transit resources

Here's a guide to getting around as the Bay Area hosts Super Bowl 50:

Rolling detours on southbound Embarcadero begin at Broadway onto Battery Street, across Market Street, into the Financial District and Bay Bridge approaches. Starting January 26, Howard Street will be closed between Third and Fourth streets for the NFL experience at Moscone Center.

The foot of Market Street is barely recognizable, but the new Super Bowl City is. There will be two concert stages and even a football field for 1 million plus fans to gear up for the biggest game of all. Millions of fans will get the ultimate experience on January 30 when it opens. Super Bowl City will be free to the public with four security checkpoints to enter.

Maps are posted throughout the Financial District to help pedestrians find their way around Super Bowl City. You're best route to the Ferry Building is a straight shot down Mission Street. San Francisco has ambassadors out in force along the water front and the Financial District to answer questions and point commuters in the right direction.

One way commuters are avoiding the gridlock is to stay off the roads all together.
