ride for free in august 2020

7/26/2020

 
Turlock Transit will suspend fare collection for fixed route and Dial-a-Ride services during the month of August 2020, allowing passengers to ride for free.  This change is being made for several reasons, including:
  1. Physical Distancing. By providing free fares we can continue the use of rear door boarding for most passengers on the larger buses, which minimizes direct interactions between bus drivers and passengers.  This helps reduce the potential spread of COVID-19.
  2. Driver Barriers. Physical barriers (doors) are scheduled to be installed in the transit buses in August.  By extending the free fare period, it provides time for the barriers to be completed prior to resuming fare collection (and front door boarding) in September 2020.
  3. Financial Relief for Passengers.  As the COVID-19 pandemic has continued for longer than initially anticipated, we understand that many of our passengers may be struggling financially during these uncertain times.  Due to additional resources provided by the CARES Act and legislative relief provided by AB 90, we are able to extend free fares to passengers in this manner.

Regular fare collection is expected to resume on September 1, 2020.
