PresidiGo Shuttle

PresidiGo Shuttle is a public transit system in San Francisco, California serving the San Francisco Presidio. The service includes two routes: the "Presidio Hills" route providing circulator service within the Presidio, and the "Downtown" route connecting to Embarcadero station and the Transbay Transit Center in downtown San Francisco.[1] The routes connect at the Presidio Transit Center, which is also served by Muni bus route 43. The service is nominally free public transport, although a rider pass or Muni Visitor Passport is required for some trips during rush hours. Operations are contracted to MV Transportation and are overseen by the Presidio Trust.

The service uses nine buses: three cutaway buses for the circulator route, and six larger buses (five ElDorado National XHF and one New Flyer XN40) for the downtown route. The buses use compressed natural gas (CNG) fuel and are stored in a facility at Fort Scott.[1]

A second circulator route, the "Crissy Fields" route, was discontinued in 2020 due to low ridership.[2]
