The Broadway Tunnel (San Francisco) is a highway tunnel in San Francisco, California, and carries its namesake street underneath Russian Hill for about three blocks. The Tunnel opened in 1952, and serves as a high-capacity conduit for traffic between Chinatown and North Beach in the east and Russian Hill and Van Ness in the west.
The east portal is located just past the Mason Street overpass. The west portal is located just before the Hyde Street overpass. Combined with these two overpasses, the tunnel provides for uninterrupted traffic flow along Broadway for a stretch of six blocks, between Powell Street on the east and Larkin Street on the west.
