Provides rides for any purpose, as long as you meet one of the following criteria: you are 65+ years old, you have a disability, or you have no other means of transportation.

The Reduced Fare Program offers older adults the opportunity to access public transportation at a reduced cost, typically set at half the regular fare. Utilizing a convenient stored value card known as FREEDOM, participants can easily pay for their rides by loading funds onto the card and tapping it on the designated yellow target at fare gates. The innovative computerized fare collection system then records their entry time to apply the appropriate discounted fare. This program, categorized as a paratransit service, allows for pre-payment and offers shared rides along fixed routes, providing older adults with a reliable and cost-effective transportation option. By scheduling rides in advance, participants can efficiently plan their journeys and benefit from transportation services that operate on a fixed schedule, ensuring timely and hassle-free travel experiences.
