Where to Buy Passes for Commuter Services

One-Way Trips are sold on the buses.

Monthly and 10 Ride Passes can now be purchased online and stored on your reusable TAP card.  Please note, a one-time non-refundable fee of $2.00 will be charged upon TAP card issuance.  What is a TAP card? Click here to buy your pass online. Your TAP card can also be loaded over the phone by calling 1-866-TAPTOGO (827-8646).

Passes may also be purchased at the AVTA Business Office during regular office hours. Cash, credit/debit, and transit vouchers are accepted at this location. Personal checks are not accepted.

We begin selling passes on the 25th of each month for the following month. The last day a pass can be purchased for the current month is the 10th.

Passes of higher value may be used on routes with a lesser monthly pass value. Passes with lesser value will require an upcharge subtracted from the stored value on your TAP card, when riding routes with a higher monthly pass value.

AVTA will accept valid Metrolink passes on local transit only. Metrolink passes will not be accepted on AVTA Commuter Service.
