North County Transit District Executive Director Matthew O. Tucker announced Monday he will retire Sept. 1 after nearly 15 years with the agency and 30 years in public transit.
Milestones achieved during his tenure include replacing 100 percent of the district’s train locomotive fleet with new locomotives to meet stringent emissions guidelines and advancing the transition to zero-emission buses. The district expects to have 41 zero-emission buses in operation by 2025. During Tucker’s tenure the district also developed plans and obtained funding to add another downtown Coaster station by early 2026 that will serve the San Diego Convention Center and Petco Park.
