SAN FRANCISCO (BCN) – The Golden Gate Bridge, Highway and Transportation District is holding a hearing next week on proposed fares for a new ferry service between Angel Island and San Francisco’s Ferry Building that could start as soon as late November.
The hearing will be at 1 p.m. Nov. 5 after the bridge district’s Board of Directors last week approved the new daily, round-trip ferry service.

The proposed fares are the same as Golden Gate Ferry’s Tiburon service, $14 each way or $7.50 with a stored-value Clipper card plus a state park entrance fee, with other discounts available for youth, seniors, people with disabilities and groups, according to the district. The service would make five round trips per day between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m.
