Passenger Guidelines

Half-Fare Ridership Policy

Passengers riding for half-fare must present an MTA identification card (ID) or a Medicare card (not a Medicaid card) to the driver. To obtain an MTA ID card, come to the MTA for a photo between 8:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m., Monday through Friday.
Please note that you will require additional documentation to qualify. If you are 65 years of age or older, bring a document stating your birthday. This includes a birth certificate, a picture ID with age or date of birth, or a Medicare card. If you are disabled, you will need to fill out our physician verification form or present a Medicare card.
The cost for an MTA ID card is $2.00 for residents and $10.00 for non-residents.
