(RCW 81.112.210, 81.112.220, 81.112.230) Learn more about ORCA and how to get one on page 5 or at soundtransit.org/ORCA Transit tips Get to your bus stop or station about five minutes early. Watch for the route number on the bus and at the stop. When riding the bus, you can ask the driver for the stop closest to your destination; a block before your stop, pull the cord or press the bell bar or button. Transfers When you transfer between buses and trains within two hours, ORCA automatically credits the first fare toward the second ride. For more information, visit orcacard.com or call 1-888-988-6722 / TTY Relay: 711. Sound Transit only offers transfers with an ORCA card. If you don’t have one, you need to pay for each ride separately. 2 Rules for riding Please help make everyone’s ride pleasant and safe. • Pay the correct fare; have tickets and ORCA cards ready to show a fare enforcement officer if asked. • Hold personal items, store in overhead rack or under the seat. • Respect the privacy of other passengers. • Service animals and pets in small containers are allowed. • Use headphones. • No eating. • Food and drinks are allowed in closed containers only. • Shirts and shoes must be worn at all times. • Do not lie down or place feet on seats. • Do not disturb the operator while driving. • Do not harass other riders. • Do not be loud or unruly. • No smoking, e-cigarettes or vaping. • No littering. • Do not drink alcohol. • No hazardous, explosive or corrosive materials. • No unlawful weapons or firearms. • No soliciting. • No loitering. • Do not leave bags unattended.

Fair and equal treatment We are committed to fair and equal treatment for everyone who rides Sound Transit buses and trains.

If you believe you have experienced such discrimination, you may file a complaint with Sound Transit, the Federal Transit Administration, or the U.S. Department of Transportation. You must file the complaint with Sound Transit in writing within 180 days of the claimed discriminatory act. Title VI complaint forms are available by calling 206-398-5000. 3 How to pay You can use cash or an ORCA card (One Regional Card for All) to pay for your ride on Sound Transit buses and trains.
