Students in Chicago just got a major transit win: K-12 riders can now ride Pace buses and CTA for just 75 cents—down from $1. This affordable, all-year pass covers school commutes, after-school activities, weekends, and summer breaks. NITA, taking over from RTA on September 1, is coordinating fares across Pace, CTA, and Metra, even letting students transfer between services within two hours—all at the same low rate. Metra’s student fares stay available too. Making public transit simpler, cheaper, and more accessible for the next generation.
