For more than 50 years, Marin Transit has provided transit service to older adults and people with disabilities in Marin County. Today, Marin Transit provides ADA paratransit service and a suite of mobility programs and services under the Marin Access brand to meet people where they are and get them to where they want to go. 

As Marin County’s population continues to age, the District is committed to ensuring that there is a robust transit system that will empower older adults and people with disabilities to live independently, travel with confidence, and remain connected to the community.

Take advantage of free rides for seniors and people with disabilities before it ends. The Senior/ADA free fare promotion will end in March and fare collection will resume on April 1, 2022.

Income-eligible seniors and people with disabilities can continue to ride for free through our expanded Marin Access Low-Income Fare Assistance (LIFA) program! Visit www.marinaccess.org or call our travel navigators at (415) 454-0902 to opt-in and receive a free pass on Marin Transit local bus service.
