understand this here. our plan is to come with you over the next six months to come to you with complete comprehensive recommendations no later than the early spring of last year, so that's something i wanted to make sure i highlighted with the committee here in terms of our process moving forward. hopefully, you all are aware that the south gate project is under construction, and we are leading the effort. that does include three tolling locations for the overall program, so those are important infrastructure improvements that will be put into play as you see in the timeline there. the other items are network communications and what we also call toll system integration where we basically hire the vendor that comes in to install the critical equipment, cameras, as well as sensors for the tolling infrastructure. this is all leading to who we call the -- what we call the phase one go live approximately
9:46 am
two years from now, so we've got a robust program that we need to move forward on in terms of getting that implemented, but what we need to focus on is getting new service from the east bay, new intraisland shuttle service and shutting service from the east bay. we're working the approvals for the transit programs and the partner program, we're working with the sfmta in that regards. so that encapsulates phase one, which brings you about two years out. but that's not the completion of the program. the west side bridges program, starting next summer, we'll start to move into construction. we'll go ahead and construct the final two toll points, and with that, comes phase two of that integration contract, and then the final go live for the
9:47 am
system in the fall of 2024, and let's not forget about the 80 shuttle pilots because that's a shuttle pilot study that we're pursuing and we'll be bringing you new information as we go to the next year. let's go to the next couple of slides. the next slide is the items that we've discussed in terms of management, etc. i did want to emphasize on the financing side -- you can go to the next slide, please. what's really important for us to take a look at and make sure that you understand is the work that we're doing to go ahead and pursue additional funds, particularly from the federal government as it relates to an existing grant for sfmta, we're seeking additional funds for that grant, and we want to thank sfmta for that. we're also going to go ahead, and i want to talk about, as
9:48 am
much as we can, about the ferry service project. we're going to go ahead with the ferry providers and implement ferry service and seek funding for vessels from state and local sources. another project is the bicycle and pedestrian planning efforts that we're working on. our plan is to build a location from the eastern span drop off and bringing a basic path along the western side of the island down to the ferry terminal. so that's the vision that we have, and we're actively pursuing funds to make that a reality here. last slide should be coming forth, which really just an
9:49 am
overview of the fact that the infrastructure itself, as i indicated, is implemented in phases. there are environmental approvals that frankly are being documented as we speak in terms of the actual physical infrastructure. one reminder that the actual totaling concept and the actual operations of tolling was approved in 2011 as part of the island. we're doing the civil engineering for the foundations and the poles, the physical infrastructure, as i mentioned, and finalizing, our intent is to finalize an r.f.p. and put it out to market in spring of next year for the existing integration contract, and funding and grant management is probably as important as anything for us right now to continue to pursue funding for the items that are part of this
9:50 am
program. and we're going to be doing a robust program for the next five or six months. that completes my presentation. thank you. >> supervisor haney: thank you, director fung and deputy director cordova. any questions from my colleagues about this? i don't see any there. i did just want to just underscore something on the outreach on the ferry. there are a number of different populations on the island currently, and i want to make sure that we are providing outreach and information and counseling as to how this will impact them. my office has heard from residents who live in some of
9:51 am
the supportive housing on the island and what this will mean to them, for them, so as we're thinking about outreach, i think we also need to think about how we're educating and informing both current residents and future residents. one -- one -- one thing i wanted to ask, i saw that for tida, i saw there was a pretty significant drop in revenue for tida. do you know what accounts for that? >> the tida, what we're working with for tida is a revenue stream, flat revenue stream consistent over the next five years. the fact that there may have been a drop in revenue really is just an indication that we're not spending as much as was available, so we went
9:52 am
ahead -- but now, we frankly envision an increase in not only this fiscal year, but significantly over the next two fiscal years in terms of overall funding need in that regard, commissioner. >> supervisor haney: okay. operator, is there any public comment? >> clerk: let's see. >> operator: you have zero questions remaining. >> supervisor haney: all right. i'll close public comment. can we have a motion and a second on item 3? >> supervisor mandelman: move, mandelman. >> supervisor walton: second. >> supervisor haney: moved by mandelman, seconded by walton. it's a good combo there. madam clerk, can i have a roll call, please. >> clerk: on item 3 -- [roll call]
