New Fare System Starts on June 1, 2026

Starting on Monday, June 1, 2026, we are upgrading our fare system to add benefits for our passengers. Due to this upgrade, all regular and reduced-fare smart cards will need to be exchanged for a new "Go Pass." Please use all balances on the current smart cards by June 30, 2026, and trade them in for free before June 30th for a new Go Pass. If purchasing a smart card for the first time, there will be a $3 activation set-up fee for a Go Pass. The reloadable Go Pass will be used for all regular and reduced-fare bus passes.
