CCSF General Obligation Bond Program | The SFMTA as part of the City GO Bond Program has allowed for critical infrastructure investment, safety improvements, and transit reliability investments – reducing the cost of operations and long-term maintenance. |
Federal Grants | The current proposed bi-partisan Infrastructure Bill provides opportunities for increased Federal support for up to 5-years for transportation infrastructure and maintenance campaigns. |
State Grants | The current State budget designates significant additional dollars to transportation available through grants for transportation infrastructure. |
Development Revenue | The development of SFMTA properties provides significant long-term opportunities to produce revenues that can go directly toward transportation infrastructure, transit service and maintenance. |
