Fare Ambassadors Check For Fares

Fare Ambassadors wear blue-clad jackets and yellow hats

Fare Ambassadors will only check for fares on platforms on the 1 Line during the summer of 2024.  (But, payment of fares is still expected on 2 Line.)  

Sound Transit expects to expand fare paid zone inspections to 2 Line stations as more riders begin using the system. One-way adult fares range from $2.25 - $3.50.  (see Fare charges.)  ‎

Fare Ambassadors systematically review paid passenger fares. In pairs, they start at opposite ends of light rail vehicles and announce their presence before checking for paid fares. Have your proof of paid fare ready, and feel free to ask any questions. They will also inspect while waiting next to the tracks.
