Transit Mobile Fare Payment

At a glance

  • What: Request to let bus riders pay fares by mobile app, so visitors (for example at the airport) are not turned away.
  • Where it stands: Staff researched vendors and prepared a memo to go in the follow-up document after the October 8 briefing; the policy and economic development committee meeting that would have taken it up was cancelled.
  • Next: Council review of the memo, either at committee or the full council.
  • Members also said some parking meters and apps do not accept all credit cards; staff will include that in the follow-up.
  • Council Member Roney backed the app and said she asked for an emergency response update to return to the public safety committee.
