In order to continue to offer reduced fare tickets, and better control the issuance of them, reduced fare tickets may only be purchased from selected ticket vendors. In addition, Persons with Disabilities and Youth must have a VRE-issued Reduced Fare ID card in order to purchase reduced fare tickets. Vendors that will sell reduced fare tickets are denoted in their lists below.
Please note: The information on each vendor page is deemed reliable, but not guaranteed. Each vendor sets its own hours of operation and policies on what types of payment it accepts. To be sure you do not encounter any difficulties, VRE encourages you to call ahead to be certain that the store will be open and will accept your method of payment.
