History
The 29 Sunset was established on January 27, 1982, as part of the implementation of Muni's five-year plan.[4] Service was rerouted off of Mission and onto Ocean as part of route restructuring in September 2015.[5] Plans to implement rapid service along the route were put forward in the 2020s.[6][7]
