Technology Updates

New Token Transit validators are now installed on all vehicles. This will allow more purchasing options for bus fares and syncs completely and securely with the Token Transit app.

B-Line also recently launched Passenger Portal. A web interface that allows paratransit riders to request and cancel their reservations without needing to call in and potentially wait on hold. This website also allows designated third parties to book rides for users as well. 

Stay tuned for more upgrades and changes to come!
