J Church and N Judah trains began using the extension of the J Church line along San Jose Avenue for carhouse moves on August 31, 1991. Although these trips were open to passengers, the extension and its stops did not open for full-time J Church service until June 19, 1993.[1]
In March 2014, Muni released details of the proposed implementation of their Transit Effectiveness Project (later rebranded MuniForward), which included a variety of stop changes for the J Church line. Under that plan, the inbound platform would be extended towards Santa Rosa Avenue, and the outbound platform moved south of the street, thus allowing trains to cross through the intersection before stopping.[2] In 2015, an SFMTA study recommended the addition of accessible "key stop" ramps between Santa Ynez and Santa Rosa, to be located at San Juan Avenue (inbound) and Nantucket Avenue (outbound). Planning for the J Church Safety and Accessibility Project began in 2022. The 2015-proposed key stop locations were deemed substandard, in part because they would be located separate from the regular platforms. The plans for relocating the boarding islands were also found to be infeasible. Instead, the platforms will be lengthened and widened in their existing configuration, and a key stop will be added to the outbound platform.[3][4] The project was approved in October 2023, with most construction to take place in 2025–2027.[5][6]
