32% of San Francisco residents use public transportation in daily commuting to work, ranking it first on the West Coast and third overall in the United States.^[196] The San Francisco Municipal Railway, known as Muni, is the primary public transit system of San Francisco. Muni is the seventh largest transit system in the United States, with 210,848,310 rides in 2006.^[197] The system operates both a combined light rail and subway system, the Muni Metro, and a large bus network.^[198] Additionally, it runs a historic streetcar line, which runs on Market Street from Castro Street to Fisherman's Wharf.^[198] It also operates the famous cable cars,^[198] which have been designated as a National Historic Landmark and are a major tourist attraction.^[199]

Bay Area Rapid Transit, a regional Commuter Rail system, connects San Francisco with the East Bay through the underwater Transbay Tube. The line runs under Market Street to Civic Center where it turns south to the Mission District, the southern part of the city, and through northern San Mateo County, to the San Francisco International Airport, and Millbrae.^[198] Another Commuter Rail system, Caltrain, runs from San Francisco along the San Francisco Peninsula to San Jose.^[198]

The Transbay Terminal serves as the terminus for long-range bus service (such as Greyhound) and as a hub for regional bus systems AC Transit (Alameda & Contra Costa counties), SamTrans (San Mateo County), and Golden Gate Transit (Marin and Sonoma Counties).^[200] Amtrak also runs a shuttle bus from San Francisco to its rail station across the Bay in Emeryville.^[201] A small fleet of commuter and tourist ferries operate from the Ferry Building and Pier 39 to points in Marin County, Oakland, and north to Vallejo in Solano County.^[198]

Cycling is a popular mode of transportation in San Francisco. 75,000 residents commute by bicycle per day.^[202]

Pedestrian traffic is a major mode of transport. In 2011, Walk Score ranked San Francisco the second most walkable city in the United States.^[203][204]
