BELLINGHAM, Wash. — Under a new proposal, those 18 and under could ride Whatcom County buses for free.
But the change could cost other riders.
Whatcom Transportation Authority is proposing a fare increase on their fixed routes and offering free youth fares.
The proposed changes would not affect the $1 single ride fares, but 31-day and 92-day bus passes would increase by $5-10.
WTA will hold a community meeting on October 16 at Carl Cozier Elementary School.
