HOW TO

To board Brio you must be at a designated Brio station. Brio vehicles will ONLY stop at designated Brio stations. Fixed-route buses will NOT stop at Brio stations.

Regular, fixed-route bus stops are located near each Brio station to allow passengers to transfer onto Brio or the fixed route.

STEP ONE: PAY YOUR FARE

using the ticket vending machine

Buy a one-way trip, a day pass, a weekly pass or a monthly pass from the ticket vending machine located at all permanent Brio stations.

  • Brio Ticket Vending Machines accept cash and credit/debit cards.
  • 1-ride fare is valid for a single trip on Brio and valid as a transfer to a fixed route.
  • 1-ride fares purchased through the Ticket Vending Machine must be surrendered to the fixed-route driver upon boarding.
  • Brio also accepts passes and transfers from connecting fixed-route buses. Transfer restrictions still apply.

STEP TWO: BOARD BRIO
