BART is seeking feedback about two new fare programs, take the survey
BART is seeking feedback on two new fare programs under consideration to increase transit ridership. Take the survey at bart.gov/BayPassSurvey.
The first is Clipper BayPass, a regional, prepaid, unlimited -ride transit pass available to institutions including employers, universities, affordable housing sites, and other participating organizations. Organizations purchase and provide a prepaid Clipper BayPass to 100% of their eligible members who can enjoy unlimited access to all bus, rail, and ferry services in the nine-county Bay Area. This program is currently in its pilot phase.
The second program is the No Cost & Reduced Cost Transfers Pilot Program scheduled to launch along with the Next Generation Clipper system in the future. This will provide transit riders with free or discounted transfers between various transit agencies when using Clipper. Customers will pay the full fare for the first leg of their trip and transfer trips made between agencies in the two hours following their first Clipper card tag will be free or discounted up to the maximum local fare, currently $2.50.
Please share your opinions about these programs by taking the survey online June 7 – June 24 at bart.gov/BayPassSurvey or at in-station outreach events at the BART stations listed below.
