How to apply for Senior & Disabled Transit (FXBGO! (Fredericksburg Regional Transit, formerly FRED)) — Fredericksburg City in Virginia
FXBGO! (Fredericksburg Regional Transit, formerly FRED)
Who it's for
FXBGO! (Fredericksburg Regional Transit, formerly FRED) serves the City of Fredericksburg with City fixed-route bus system (Routes 10-15) based at the Lawrence A. Davies Transit Center. Half Fare Program for persons 62 years of age or older, people with disabilities, and Medicare recipients: standard fare $1.25, reduced (half) fare $0.60. Right now FXBGO! buses are fare-free for everyone (the Fares page says 'Transit Fares are temporarily suspended due to Fare Free service initiative'), so the Half-Fare card is also on hold; it applies again if fares return. Call 1-540-372-1222 for schedules, eligibility, or to book a ride.
Service areas, reduced-fare eligibility, and ride availability are set by the transit provider, so this shows as a may-qualify result.
People who qualify for one senior program often qualify for others. See everything you may qualify for — free, no SSN, about five minutes.
