 10-Ride Punch Cards to Replace Ticket Books

Starting this July

Starting in July, 10-ride punch cards will replace 10-ride ticket books. The installation of new fareboxes in September is the reason for this change:

• Both single-ride tickets AND the new punch cards will be accepted on C-TRAN only, through August 31, 2014.
• Beginning September 1, 2014, only the punch cards will be accepted on C-TRAN.

Exchanges Honored, Sept. 1–Oct. 31, 2014

• Exchanges of fully intact ticket books, for the new punch cards, will be honored from September 1–October 31, 2014, at any C-TRAN Passenger Service Office.
• Partial exchanges will not be accepted.
