Claremont Upcoming Virtual Meetings - Metro's Fareless System Initiative

Press release from the City of Claremont:

March 03, 2021

The Fareless System Initiative study is underway and a leading concept has emerged – a fareless pilot program that would provide free rides on Metro buses and rail service for low-income riders and K-12 students starting in January 2022. Metro invites you to learn more about this concept and provide feedback.

The Fareless System Initiative project team will present at the five local Service Council meetings in March. Metro’s local Service Councils advise on planning and implementation of Metro services in five geographic regions, but the presentation will be the same and you can attend any of the meetings, regardless of where you live. These meetings will also be an opportunity for participants to ask questions and provide input. Below you can find details of the upcoming meetings.

All agendas will be posted here and you can access all the meetings here.
