Zero-Fare — Just Get On and Go

In 2020, Intercity Transit did something pretty cool: we made all our rides free for everyone! Now, instead of paying each time you hop on board, the cost is covered through sales tax revenue.

This has made a huge difference in our community. More people are riding with us, which is great for the environment because it means fewer cars on the road. It's also easier for everyone to get around, no matter their budget. It's a win-win for making our cities healthier and more welcoming.

We're excited to see how this "fare-free" system continues to benefit everyone in the years to come. It's all part of our mission to make getting around easy, accessible, and good for the planet.
