Ben Franklin Transit


Ride The Bus!

Fares

You must have the exact fare to board a Ben Franklin Transit bus. You can also use monthly passes, 10-Ride tickets or purchase a Day Pass from the Coach Operator. Our Coach Operators do not make change or carry money!

The following fares will be effective: January 2, 2007

Transfers

If more than one bus is needed to reach your destination ask the driver for a Transfer. Transfers are free and are good for 1 1/2 hours from the time you get them. Please note that transfers cannot be used for a return trip on your original bus and transfers are not issued on transfers. An untorn transfer will be used as an all day pass.
