The new bus service has limited stops for faster service and runs every 10 minutes! The brand-new buses also feature FREE WiFi access and USB charging ports, so your phone can recharge while you recharge yourself on the bus' comfortable seats!
The buses will only operate rush hour service, so Monday-Friday, 5:30 a.m. until 9:30 a.m., and 3:30 p.m. until 7:30 p.m.
Fares on RideOn extRa buses are the same as regular RideOn fares, however, you won't have to worry about it for the entire month of October, however, since RideOn extRa buses will be completely FREE until November 1, 2017! Once fares do start being collected, you will be able to use your SmarTrip card, pass, and cash.  THERE WILL BE NO LOADING OF CASH ONTO A SMARTRIP CARD.
