Notably

  • increase of 10% in fares
  • there will be fare capping- ie. using the EZFare app or new EZfare card you can tap and go and it will charge you the least amount

For example, if a rider uses the app or the card and rides a bus three times in a day, they will be charged $4.40 for the day pass, instead of $6.60 for three separate rides.

  • Children under 55 inches tall will ride free (there will be a marker as you step on the bus)

I think the card and fare capping are great ideas. This is more in line with what a lot of transit systems either do already or are going to. For instance, the Tube in London will let you tap in and out and charge you the least it can depending on where you go. Speeds up operations and gets you the best bang for your buck.

The cards are great too as those don't rely on a phone. Just load it up and start traveling.
