The Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (L.A. Metro) will resume fare collection and front-door boarding Jan. 10 due to increases in vaccination rates and a mask policy for riders.

Fares will revert to pre-pandemic costs. Front-door boarding was suspended in March 2020 at the beginning of the pandemic, with farebox and TAP ticket validator rules relaxed.

L.A. Metro offers a low-income fare program for those with an annual household income that's less than $41,400. The agency also provides discount programs for students, seniors and people with disabilities.
