our fleet talk about what that means.rves efficçtiency. i guess i should back up. potrero old bus facility. it is our coach facility. it was originally built over a and was originally built for street cars, so itis highly inefficient because we are in a different age vehicles and maintenance required for the vehicles. envisions not consolidate all our electric trolley bus fleet in facilis for our staff and then set the standard for doing these improvements at presidio yard and other yards in the future. so compone achieving fully is our mandate, and so start moving the dominos into this facility, replacinga new state the art facility, we are able to increase the number that operate out of this fuisil by roughly 80 percent.
4:03 am
are looking to increase thher pment y beyond just improving transit operations.can see of the potrero yard and you notice there is not just a bus facility here, are also looking to include up affordable and workforce housing on site.of the workforce housing that isfor construction atop the podium, we are lo have some preference for staff, maintenance staff that work at which efficihaving to co from where bart and other partner transit not running. you will see reground r+ is along bryant street, there is the phase of affordable housing is planned there. taro ghly a hunddof affordable housing plannehousing at take point 4 acres. we are on the edge of 9 and 10. y 6 transit

currently being on schedule to bring that approval of the agreement in november, fallowed approval of the design build contractor early 2025 and within we expect the developer to decommissioning the structure and beginning construction and so we do a four year process from beginning trero yard would be back online early 2029. i apparently didn't catch up with the slides there. where b, thank you for your tim with mag dulina for questions. >> you very lazaro. good to see you again. i do have questions. which should start at the top. covid pandemic changed transit ridership in the city. this project was started before the pa predicted. how covid ridership
4:08 am
effected use of the system w changed planning and design t director jeff tumlin, tranvr many fully achieved pre-pandemic ridership one ex]iample we exsided ness brt line. i think part strategy for improving ridership and g that pre-g it is by making th improvements fully believe bby improving efficiency and getting the vehicles on maintenance and repairs, this willdefinitely support that. on increase, especially including these bus routes that operate thank you. that is this project takes 12 to deliver, which i find excessive. city on public describeis excessive amount of meeting. this is activist who appreciates and think it is very important the public government and feedback, so -qul they
4:09 am
are excessive public engagement and could be ing of this project. i also wondered if back in the day your board ever ering the project in the revethe show. that one of the city's departments runs this as a housing ojt yard, but it is more a an entity that kn i your expertise how-wh a transit facili station many years ago. 12 years i project a long time anshowed it has been discussed a will go on another 5 years. again, was sed being primarily a project rather then transit project? >> uple clarifications. theally off the desirowhat has preceded that to actually determining what are the needs of the is the communiting for lqterms of what kind be willing termmany unis considered acceptable to the
4:10 am
community, and couple things--so, again with pr in late 2022, we are really in the thicso from 2022 through zeof this project i think we are quite with the schedule we have originally back in 2017 facility fr developed. as far as the neighborhood one thing didn't cover in entation, there are many pieces of the project beyond the bus yardalso public art, there is many other things that are project that we want to insurthe driver then as far as the start the project from. this had always project first with ng development being second, because this bus yard is not only operatiot does again a that we intend to deliver and this is that the mta does own and the housing was seen as somethi community wanted and we of course arch look forward seeing housing built there t
4:11 am
it very much has to be the bus yard fitht e housing. the need >> speaking of housing, you addressed families, but given the dire situation of housing in san couple years and few months it ramptoo much housing, is the project looking building it seems to me we need moreto put something since the project hasn't been built yet? >> the project is s and based on the ongoing outreach, as well as th been doing over the figure what is feasible at the cap of what we that being said, again, fe at joint development to incorporate housing on future can ed >> i realize the decision is the party and fully aware that, but i'm a taxpay of city.but think you ried to address why it took 5 year tuesda to get to 2022.e all of would how have expectations project gone
4:12 am
positively or neg tavly, what is the way and what are you pleased about particularly of those effected the project? i'll just mention, i think again the fact we have aíinvolved the process has really shown through in the fact both the mta board and the board of supervisors with entitlements environmental review, that that was done unanimously to the environmental review and we due to the fact we have kept the community public at large involved at every all the we have a e-mail list every +o a new out there anay in the communication through every step and we is terms of are seeing for the project. >> anything that hasare benefit from? we are looking for lessens learned that projeblths. >> i think i hath to get back rly close to the schedule we set out for i think is a good sign. >> great. thank you very much. project. a very needed project an@od really good i'm excited to see it completed so thank you for coming and us commissioner turner. >> i like to pick up is, i'm amazped.vacation
