With the San Francisco Giants home opener scheduled for Friday, local transit agencies are reminding fans that there are many ways to get to the ballpark without driving.

The Giants have a whole webpage dedicated on travel to Oracle Park. Trains, ferries, buses and bicycles are among the modes that can deliver fans to their seats.

The site even offers a "Where Are You Coming From?" section that allows users to find the easiest way to the stadium from across the Bay Area.

Some of the service providing ways to Oracle Park:

Muni provides train and bus service to and from Oracle Park, connecting to BART at Embarcadero Station and Powell Station, as well as to points throughout western and southern San Francisco. The N Judah and gameday shuttles stop at 2nd & King Station, adjacent to Oracle Park; the T Third/Central Subway line stops at 4th & King Station, one block from Oracle Park. All train lines run until midnight Monday through Saturday and 10 p.m. on Sunday.
