Public Comments Invited on Proposed Loudoun Commuter Bus Fare Structure

The public is invited to comment on a proposed new fare structure for the Loudoun County Transit Commuter Bus system. Comments regarding the proposed fare structure will be accepted via email through 6 p.m., next Wednesday, May 14, at transitcomments@loudoun.gov. All comments received via email will be forwarded to the Board of Supervisors.

Additionally, the Board of Supervisors will hear public comment during its monthly public hearing beginning at 6 p.m., Wednesday, May 14, in the Board Room of the County Government Center, 1 Harrison Street, S.E. in Leesburg.

The Board is expected to take up the issue of a new fare structure for the commuter bus system at its business meeting on May 21.

In 2013, the Board gave staff direction to retain a consultant to analyze the elements related to fare levels for the commuter bus program, and to develop a proposed fare structure for commuter bus services during the approximate five year period of Phase I of the Silver Line.

More information, including a detailed breakdown of the proposed new fares, is online at www.loudoun.gov/busfare.
