From the meeting
The November 2026 staff liaison report noted that Golden Gate Bridge, Highway and Transportation District had launched a fleet replacement program with a goal of replacing its full ferry fleet by 2033. The first new vessel, a 500-passenger catamaran, was expected in service in 2028 and was designed to cut emissions by 80%. This was a public update on an already announced replacement program, not a new award in this packet.
