Success of 2022 pilot electric-vehicle program leads city to expand service to year-round

An electric vehicle passenger shuttle that operated from June through December last year in downtown Oceanside will return this summer under a new two-year contract with the operator.

Air pollution, downtown traffic, and the need for parking are reduced by using the electric shuttles. The service also boosts business by making restaurants, shops and other attractions more accessible. The San Diego Association of Governments will contribute $250,000 annually to support the program, and Visit Oceanside, which advertises on the vehicles, has offered $100,000 for each year. Oceanside’s share will be $223,000 from its general fund.
