In the meantime, Muni is looking to reconfigure the seats in the existing Breda LRVs to increase capacity. Muni expects the reconfiguration will remove 8 seats per car, but make room for between 8 and 16 additional passengers (standing). According to
streetsblog, Muni will reconfigure all seats to face sideways on at least one LRV and roll it into service as a test this coming January.
