"Corpus" and "Echoes" are at the Downtown S.F. Ferry Terminal; "Coralee" is on the north side of the Ferry Building. The others are all walkable from the terminal, too. An amazing outdoor gallery from @sfport.bsky.social!

The city's Embarcadero, a 34-mile stretch of @sfgov.sf.gov, is transformed into a giant outdoor gallery. This is the vision behind the bigartloop.org, a multi-year effort that brings large-scale sculptures out of storage and into public spaces across the City. Come and see it yourself!

Numbers are in: more growth for ferry ridership. Preliminary data shows 17% year over year increase in September. Total ridership for the last 12 months: 2.9 million pax. Inching ever closer to that 3 million mark. The Bay Area is choosing safe, clean and reliable transit over freeway gridlock.

Last week our peak morning commute ridership (westbound only, arrive by 9:30 AM) landed at 2,774 per day. That's our third best week for that figure since 2020. Beaten only by ... the two weeks prior. Peak morning commute ridership is up 23% year over year. 📈

This is awesome. We also had a nice Tuesday, our best single-day September total (10,987) since 2020. Imagine if all these people (plus @rideact.bsky.social and other transbay bus riders) had to be on the freeways and bridges instead? Does Google Maps have a darker shade of red available?

Big ridership day yesterday. It was our second highest day since the pandemic. 213,313 exits. That’s an increase of 10k compared to the previous Tuesday. 7% of trips were paid with Tap and Ride. Thank you for riding BART.

We sold out the last half-dozen Valkyries ferries of the season like A MONTH in advance. Demand has been incredible, but we can only land one ferry per game at Pier 48 near Chase Center. We've often been able to increase capacity 1-2 days prior to games as we confirm larger vessels are available.

If the @sfbayferry.com for the @wgoldenstate.bsky.social game is sold out more than a week in advance, then: (1) go Valkyries, and (2) "we're gonna need a bigger boat" (or more boats)!
