Tomorrow: New Fare Policy Changes Take Effect!

Dumbarton Express e-News

A reminder to all Dumbarton Express (DBX) riders that a new fare policy will go into effect tomorrow, July 1. The policy was adopted by the AC Transit Board of Directors this past December and all changes to AC Transit’s fare policies apply to the DBX as well. It’s designed to speed boarding, provide greater convenience and value, and encourage more Clipper usage.

Here are the basics of the new policy as it applies to the DBX:

  • Cash fares will stay the same (with new local discounts on Clipper)
  • Local bus-to-bus transfers within and between the DBX and AC Transit will be eliminated, both with cash and Clipper
  • Customers will pay full fare on each boarding or use a Day Pass, which will load automatically on Clipper or can be purchased at the farebox on AC Transit buses
  • The new Day Pass will give customers unlimited local rides all day on both AC Transit and Dumbarton Express
  • The price of the Local Adult 31-Day Pass will be reduced

More information about the changes can be found on the Dumbarton Express website, www.dumbartonexpress.com along with a chart detailing the upcoming fares.

Thanks for riding the Dumbarton Express.
