EZ Transit Pass and other discounts
The EZ transit pass is a monthly pass good for local travel on 23 different public transit carriers throughout the Greater Los Angeles region.
As of July 1, Metro put a cap on how much riders pay for bus and rail. It’s called fare capping. Which means the more you ride, the more you will save. EZ transit pass and customers who use this program are not affected by fare capping or fare changes. Learn more here.
