TRIPS resuming fare collection Sept. 1

TRIPS Public Transportation will resume fare collection for on-demand and Fremont Shuttle service rides beginning Sept. 1, 2021.

Fare collection was suspended March 2020 to limit the handling and passing of cash to mitigate risks of virus transmission throughout the peaks of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Sandusky County on-demand ride fares will resume at the rate of $2, $3, or $4 per ride, depending on the location of travel. Fremont Shuttle fares will resume at $1 per ride. TRIPS on-demand rides are available 5 a.m.-7 p.m., Monday-Friday, and 5 a.m.-noon on Saturdays. Rides should be scheduled 24 hours in advance by calling 419-332-8091.

Fremont Shuttle rides are available 8 a.m.-6 p.m., Monday-Friday, with shuttle stop locations available throughout the City of Fremont.

Details on both services are available at www.glcap.org/trips or by calling 419-332-8091.
