Plan A Kid-Friendly Trip
Public transportation is available to all, including those under the age of 18! Whether your child is joining you for your ride or riding solo, these policies help keep everyone safe on the way to their destination.
Bringing a Stroller?
Children may remain in strollers in the priority seating areas onboard if a parent or guardian maintains control of the stroller. If priority seating areas are occupied, children must be removed from the stroller and the stroller must be collapsed. Priority seating is reserved for riders in wheelchairs or mobility devices.
Policies for Children Under 18
- Kids ages 18 and younger ride free! K-12 students ride free with valid ID (Students can get an ID at the Transit Store if needed)
- Children 10 years and younger must be accompanied by someone 12 or older.
- Children under the age of 5 should be held securely while the vehicle is in motion.
- Recreational scooters must be folded while in transit. Items may not block aisles, obstruct seats or be left unattended.
- Food and drinks in open containers are not allowed on board. Beverages are permitted in a spill-proof or screw-top container.
