About the Student Transit Pass
The goal of the Student Transit Pass is to help families by reducing transportation costs and the demands on parents to transport their children to school and activities. An additional goal is to create life-long transit users, which reduces the impact of single-occupant vehicles on the environment.
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.
Safe Routes to School Program Partner
LTD partners with local Safe Routes to School programs to encourage students to use active and shared transportation for their school commute. Visit the Eugene-Springfield Safe Routes to School website for more information.
