Electrified Bus Charging and Maintenance Facility

Marin Transit’s biggest need is for a centralized fixed route facility for maintenance, parking, and charging of zero-emission buses. This facility will support continued investment in electric buses, improve operational efficiency, increase competition for contracted service, and reduce long term risk.

Marin Transit has successfully acquired three small sites that provide bus parking, paratransit maintenance, and paratransit parking. However, these do not provide sufficient space to accommodate the full bus fleet nor to maintain fixed route vehicles or install sufficient electric bus charging to fulfill state mandates and Marin County’s sustainability goals.

Currently, Marin Transit operates fixed route, paratransit, and mobility management services under contracts with three providers. Marin Transit relies on these contractors for maintenance and storage facilities. This reliance undermines our ability to competitively attract a range of contractors.

Marin Transit is currently searching for a single larger site which will fulfill our needs for maintenance, bus parking, and electric bus charging. The cost of the project is approximately $44.5M and an investment of $2.2M in workforce development. Marin Transit recently received a federal grant that will cover part of this cost.
