DiriGo FAQs

90-Minute Pass

A passenger using a DiriGo Pass smartcard to ride can scan their phone or tap their card and ride for 90 minutes. No need to ask for a transfer. Passengers paying cash will need to pay again when boarding a second bus

Fare Capping

Fare capping allows for frequent travel and financial flexibility. It provides the benefits of a multi-ride discounted pass without having to pay up-front costs. When you use your DiriGo Pass smartcard you can load small amounts of value into your account whenever you want. Riders get credit for every trip they take until they reach a daily or monthly “fare cap.” After reaching the cap all rides are free for the month or day. This “pay as you go” approach improves affordability and equity in the cost of using transit. It allows all riders using the DiriGo Pass smartcard or the mobile app equal access to discounts. Riders pay only for what they use. Please note: Purchase of Ten Ride passes do not qualify for fare-capping benefits.

Is Cash still accepted?

Yes, cash (exact change) is still accepted; but, paying with a DiriGo Pass, instead of cash, includes 90 Minute Pass and Fare-Capping benefits.
