From the beginning, the transportation challenges of growth in the TI neighborhood of TI have been unique. Although part of SF, the only way to access the island is from the congested, state-owned San Francisco Oakland Bay Bridge. Early transportation plans in the mid 2000s articulated the core components of the transportation vision for a redeveloped TI that are moving towards implementation today. These early plans led to the 2008 Transportation Management Act, which authorized the demand management and revenue raising vision for transportation on the redeveloped Treasure Island. The Act called for an agency to be designated as the TI Mobility management Agency to oversee collecting revenues that would be spend on new transportation services on the island, and to coordinate those new services. The TIMMA was formed in 2014.

In many ways, this is the best thing we can do to ensure affordability. High quality transit service enables families to car-shed, or become car-light. To further support affordability, we #2 use programmatic approaches to address barriers to the service, provide entry discounts, such as membership discounts, to encourage the use of services, and address the specific needs of long-term residents by offering a limited-duration, first toll free benefit until the full suite of transit options are available but also offer them the full Transportation Affordability Program to encourage their transition to the new regime.
