SAN FRANCISCO – The Forest Hill and West Portal SF Muni stations will be closed this weekend as Twin Peaks Tunnel undergoes inspections and safety testing. 

The stations will be closed from 8 a.m. Saturday until Sunday at midnight, according to an alert from the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Authority.  

The tunnel, which is over two miles long, is undergoing detailed visual inspections, which will require de-energizing overhead lines, shutdown of the track, and staging of equipment.  

The K, L and M buses will operate with detours. The S shuttle will operate between the Castro and Embarcadero Stations.
