Charlotte, NC Fare Capping initiative reduces public transit costs and simplifies commutes
Charlotte, NC Fare Capping Reduce Costs Simplifies Commutes
Complete
The initiative establishes an $88 limit on monthly public transit fees per user, the equivalent of a monthly pass. The CATS-Pass mobile ticketing app creates a virtual monthly pass once the user reaches the cap. This pass offers free rail and transit rides through the end of the current month. Single-ride, daily, and weekly passes contribute to the fare cap. Transit officials hope Fare Capping lowers barriers to public transit use through an automated process.
