On July 1, Riverside Transit Agency (RTA) will implement its first fare increase in more than a decade. The changes follow more than a month of community meetings and a public hearing. RTA’s fares have been generally lower than that of neighboring transit agencies. But with rising operational costs, expanded service, and a state requirement that passenger fares pay a certain percentage of overall operational costs, RTA is compelled to make a fare adjustment to continue to receive state funding and maintain existing service levels. A second round of fare adjustments is expected in 2021.

RTA PASSES ARE GETTING A WHOLE NEW LOOK
Beginning Monday, July 1, RTA’s bus passes will get a makeover. The new look corresponds with a fare adjustment that also begins on the same date. The new passes have unique splashes of color, are the size of a credit card and include a magnetic strip on the back for quick and easy boarding. They come in a spectrum of 1-Day, 7-Day and 30-Day varieties, including ones for general, senior/disabled and youth riders. Get yours today at RTA headquarters, at participating pass outlets, or online here.
