			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Crews are continuing to relocate utility lines around Union Square to prepare the project alignment for the Union Square/Market Street Station. We expect all utility relocations around Union Square to be completed by June 2012.</p>
<p>The complete, current three-week construction schedule is available <a href="http://www.centralsubwayblog.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/CN-1251-Construction-Updates-01-21-12-to-02-10-12.pdf">here</a> (PDF).</p>
<p><strong>Work Locations</strong>:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Stockton Street</strong> between Geary and Post streets</li>
<li><strong>Geary Street</strong> on both sides of Stockton Street</li>
<li><strong>O&#8217;Farrell Street</strong> on both sides of Stockton Street</li>
<li><strong>Ellis Street</strong> on both sides of Stockton Street</li>
<li><strong>Stockton Street</strong> between O&#8217;Farrell and Market streets</li>
</ul>
<p>Construction is scheduled seven days a week from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., although night work may be necessary.</p>
<p><strong>Muni Service Impacts</strong>:</p>
<p>While utility-relocation work is in progress, the following Muni routes may experience delays:</p>
<p><span style="background-color: transparent; color: #3f312e; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; "> </span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="background-color: transparent; ">8X/8AX/8BX Bayshore Express</span></li>
<li><span style="background-color: transparent; ">38/38L Geary</span></li>
</ul>
<p>The 30 Stockton and 45 Union/Stockton lines <a href="http://www.centralsubwayblog.com/blog/2012/01/3045-to-caltrain-to-be-rerouted/">have been rerouted</a> around the utility-relocation sites, effective Jan. 21.</p>
<p><strong>Traffic Detours:</strong></p>
<p>While work is in progress, only Muni buses, taxis, tour buses and delivery trucks will be permitted on Stockton Street between Post and Market streets.</p>
<p>Two traffic detour options are in place to allow for better access to the Union Square area and to aid the flow of traffic:</p>
