In partnership with the Town of Tiburon and the City of Belvedere, Marin Transit is conducting a Tiburon Transit Needs Assessment to evaluate existing services within the Tiburon Peninsula, identify new and emerging mobility needs that fall outside the current transit service options, and craft practical strategies for meeting these needs. This grant funded study includes an extensive public outreach program to engage the public who live, work, and regularly visit the Tiburon Peninsula to ensure a clear understanding of their needs as they relate to transit and mobility within the region. 

 

The outreach program will reach out to a diverse group of community members to conduct interviews, hold discussions and presentations, administer transit survey’s, and host meetings to gather critical input that will aid in the development of feasible transit enhancements.  The program includes the development of a diverse Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) that will meet several times to provide insight into the process and act as key liaisons to the greater public. The TAC members include representatives from Marin Transit, Golden Gate Transit, Whistlestop Wheels, the Town of Tiburon, the City of Belvedere, and Marin County Supervisorial District 3 staff.

 

Current Activity:
Over the next several months, we will be focused on data collection of existing conditions and travel trends, as well as gathering initial input from the public. An important tool in gathering key information from the public is through an on-line transit survey that can be accessed by clicking the link listed below. Please be sure to take the time to fill out this survey!

 

Following this initial stage of the assessment, a public meeting will be conducted in the spring to share some draft concepts for future transit that will be based on the information gathered and received through the survey and other discussions. Please watch for a meeting announcement and mark your calendars to share your thoughts on the draft concepts.
