As part of the voter-approved Regional Measure 3 (RM3) funds generated by tolls on the region's state-owned bridges, the Transportation Authority of Marin has awarded $11.86 million in funding for transit projects in Marin County.
These projects benefit the riders of Golden Gate Bridge, Highway & Transportation District (GGBHTD), Marin Transit and SMART. The funding includes:
- GGBHTD San Rafael Transit Center Replacement Project, $2 million
- Marin Transit Transit Bus Replacements, $1.5million
- Marin Transit Fixed Route Electric Vehicle Charging & Maintenance Facility, $923,000

In June 2018, Bay Area voters approved RM3 to raise tolls on the region's state-owned toll bridges. Toll revenues, estimated at $4.45 billion total, are administered by the Metropolitan Transportation Commission to fund highway and transit improvements in the toll bridge corridors and their approach routes to address the Bay Area's traffic congestion.
