Commuter Fares & Passes
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.
NOTE: AVTA Office Hours Change!
Effective October 30th, 2026, the AVTA lobby will no longer be open the last Saturday of the month for commuter pass sales. The lobby will be open until 8:30pm on the last Friday of the month, and every last Friday of the month moving forward, unless it falls prior to the 25th of the month, or on a holiday. You may also purchase any AVTA bus pass through the TAP app on your iPhone or Android, or any time during regular lobby hours 8am – 6pm.
