Going all the places: Celebrating the first year of the Free Youth Transit Pass at Metro

We?re proud to?share with you the positive response from youth and community, one year into Free Youth Transit Pass. Youth can ride for free by using a Youth ORCA card, showing a student ID, or just getting on board on transit systems across the region.

With a broad effort to encourage youth to ride public transportation, King County Metro estimates that more than 7 million rides were taken by youth under age 19 on Metro buses since the Free Youth Transit Pass launched Sept. 1, 2022 and through Aug. 31, 2023.

Metro?s Youth Mobility?Program worked with schools and at events across the county to spread the word and distribute ORCA cards, contacting more than 20,000 students at 41 schools in the first year of the effort. In all, more than 44,000 Youth ORCA cards were distributed in King County.
