Student Transit Pass Sign Up Extended
October 25, 2021
The deadline for area students in grades Kindergarten through 12th grade to sign up for a Free Student Transit Pass has been extended from Oct. 31, 2021, to Dec. 30, 2021.
Lane County students can receive an electronic tap card from their school or use the new Umo Mobility app. Once loaded, students can use the “free pass” to travel aboard LTD buses to school, activities, work, and entertainment until Sept. 30, 2022. If a student’s school is not enrolled in the Free Student Transit Pass Program, please email Cammie.Harris@LTD.org to get set up. The Rhody Express in Florence, Cottage Grove Connector, and Diamond Express to Oakridge are excluded from the Free Student Transit Pass program.
Free student transit fares are made available through a grant to LTD from the state of Oregon’s Statewide Transportation Improvement Fund (STIF) approved through House Bill 2017. LTD administers the program in partnership with school districts and private schools. More than 135 schools are eligible for the program.
As a reminder, federal mandates require that all passengers wear a mask covering their face and nose when using public transit, including on LTD buses and the District’s property.
