Fare update, Student Fare and multi-ticket discounts.
Current Falcon Bus fare information and temporary multi-ticket discount updates.
Regular and Student fares have been adjusted by $1.
Diesel costs have been the main driver of a significant increase in operating expenses, along with other day-to-day operating costs. The increase in our operating costs is more than double the $1 fare adjustment, and we are not passing the full increase on to riders.
Rather than pass the full increase on to passengers, Falcon Bus is limiting this fare adjustment to $1 per ticket. The Student Fare remains $1 below the regular fare.
