    • Reduced fares include:
      • ORCA LIFT (income-based qualification)
      • People who are 65 and older
      • People who are disabled
      • People who are Medicare card holders

Title VI analysis

Community Transit evaluates the effects of proposed fare changes on minority, low-income, and limited-English speaking populations. The Title VI Analysis found that the proposed fare change does not have a disparate effect on these populations.

What happens next?

The Community Transit Board of Directors will review and consider all public comments and survey responses. The Board will take action on the fare change proposal in December.
