Be aware of your fare
It is everyone’s responsibility to comply with fare policies. Please take a moment to review accepted payment methods, prices, and concession eligibility requirements before you travel.

Pay your share
Fare payments help to cover the costs of delivering transportation services you can rely on. Fare evasion comes at a price far greater than a single ride, it can challenge your transit system’s ability to continue to provide scheduled service or expand services in the future.
Fare evasion includes:
- Boarding without paying the required fare or validating a pre-purchased fare product
- Using a fare product you’re not eligible for
- Sharing fare products with others
Fare checks are underway
Uniformed Transit Supervisors check fares visually and with a digital handheld device. If asked, please be courteous when presenting your proof of payment. Riders who are found travelling without paying a fare or using ineligible fare products will be informed of payment information and concession fare product eligibility requirements. Fare evasion may result in the deletion of misused fare products without refund, fare account suspension, or restrictions on travel privileges.
