1 <br /> ORANGE COUNTY <br /> BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS <br /> ACTION AGENDA ITEM ABSTRACT <br /> Meeting Date: September 1, 2015 <br /> Action Agenda <br /> Item No. 6-n <br /> SUBJECT: Orange Public Transportation Proposed Fixed-Route Fare Structure <br /> DEPARTMENT: Planning and Inspections PUBLIC HEARING: (Y/N) No <br /> ATTACHMENT(S): INFORMATION CONTACT: <br /> 1. Draft Fixed-Route Fare Structure Bret Martin, Transportation Planner, <br /> 2. Transit Agency Fare Comparison (919) 245-2582 <br /> Peter Murphy, Transportation <br /> Administrator, (919) 245-2002 <br /> Craig Benedict, Planning Director, <br /> (919) 245-2592 <br /> PURPOSE: To consider adoption of the Orange Unified Transportation Board (OUTBoard)- <br /> recommended Orange Public Transportation (OPT) fixed-route fare structure. <br /> BACKGROUND: To coincide with the implementation of the five-year bus service expansion <br /> program approved by the BOCC in October 2014, Orange County transportation planning staff <br /> and the Orange Unified Transportation Board (OUTBoard) developed a new fare structure for <br /> OPT fixed-route services. The only major change to the fare structure is a reduction in fare for <br /> persons with disabilities from $1 to free. Beyond this change, the proposed fare structure is also <br /> intended to address fares for specific groups of individuals and situations not addressed in the <br /> existing fare structure. <br /> For example, the proposed fare structure sets the one-way trip cash fare for children ages 6 - 17 <br /> at $1 and for children ages 0 - 5 and passengers with a Medicaid or Medicare card at $0, <br /> whereas the existing fixed-route fare structure does not. Further, the proposed fare structure <br /> addresses transfers between OPT-operated services and other agencies' services and provides <br /> options for users to purchase packages of bus passes that allow a reduced cost per trip based <br /> on frequency of use. The proposed fixed-route fare structure is provided as Attachment 1. The <br /> existing fixed-route fare structure for OPT is as follows: <br /> Service Fare <br /> Hillsborough Circulator Free to all passengers <br /> $2 one-way fare for general public <br /> Hill to Hill Shuttle $1 one-way fare for passengers with <br /> disabilities <br /> Free to passengers 60+ years of age <br />
