SAN DIEGO – Matthew O. Tucker, executive director of the North County Transit District, announced his retirement Monday after nearly 15 years heading the transit agency.
When Tucker joined NCTD in December of 2008, the agency faced a projected five-year structural deficit of $80 million. According to an NCTD statement, he implemented a plan that eliminated the deficit, established financial reserves, and created a path toward eliminating all current long-term debts. “Their hard work and their commitment to public service is so important to this region and to the people who rely on NCTD’s transit services,” he said. “It has been an honor to work with you.”
Prior to joining NCTD, Tucker served as executive director of the Virginia Department of Rail and Public Transportation, chief operating officer of the Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority, deputy public transit director for the city of Phoenix, and deputy general manager for the Greater Richmond Transit Company.
