SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 22, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Bay Area transit's ongoing transformation into a more connected, more efficient and more customer-focused mobility network today took another big step forward as transit agency and Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) staff at the January meeting of the Bay Area's newly formed Regional Network Management Council unveiled design prototypes for a common set of signs to be used by all agencies at all locations — from individual bus stops to major hubs where multiple systems connect. These prototypes will be installed later this year at the El Cerrito del Norte BART station, the Santa Rosa Transit Mall and the nearby Santa Rosa SMART station.

Key Points:

These icons are larger and more visually prominent than the logos of the individual agencies providing the services at each location.
More than 90 percent of Bay Area residents polled by MTC in 2021 identified uniform and easy-to-use transit maps and signage as an important priority for improving the region's transit network.
MTC's Operations Committee in 2022 approved a contract with Applied Wayfinding Inc. to develop a single mapping and wayfinding system for use by all Bay Area transit agencies.
MTC is the transportation planning, financing and coordinating agency for the nine-county San Francisco Bay Area.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 2, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) and Bay Area transit agencies today announced the expansion of the Clipper® START pilot program — which provides transit-fare discounts for lower-income adults age 19 to 64 — to include VTA buses and light-rail trains and to include a uniform 50 percent discount for rides on all systems that accept Clipper for fare payment.

Key Points:

MTC and the transit agencies last summer extended the Clipper START pilot through June 30, 2025.
An additional 17 transit agencies joined the Clipper START pilot in late 2020 and early 2021, and the pilot period has now been extended twice.
"Clipper START is an important tool that helps bridge the gap toward more affordable transit for those who most need that access," stated MTC Executive Director Andrew Fremier.
"The transit agencies' adoption of a blanket 50 percent discount demonstrates their seriousness about making transportation more equitable for more people across the Bay Area."
