LCTA will introduce a new rate structure for the Shared Ride Program, starting on November 1, 2018. The Shared Ride Program has been operating at the current rates since 2017. This rate increase is necessary, in order to keep up with continuous service demands, as well as the cost of fuel, payrolls, insurances, and other operating costs.
The new fare structure, which has been approved by PennDOT, is listed below:
