Fare Zones
ST Express uses a fare zone system, which comprises 3 regions:
- King County
- Pierce County
- Snohomish County
The fares are as follows:
- One county-$2.50 (18-64) $1.25 (6-18); $0.75 (65+/Disabled)
- Multi-County-$3.50 (18-64) $2.50 (6-18); $1.50 (65+/Disabled).
A valid youth ORCA card required for youth fares when paying with ORCA card. A valid Regional Reduced Fare Permit (RRFP) required for those over 65 or with a disability. New RRFP's are issued as ORCA cards.
Paper transfers are no longer accepted or given out on Sound Transit routes. Passengers can use an ORCA card to transfer between ST routes or other agencies and will receive an electronic transfer valid for two hours from initial payment.

Famous quotes containing the words fare and/or zones:
“who should moor at his edge
And fare on afoot would find gates of no gardens,
But the hill of dark underfoot diving,
Closing overhead, the cold deep, and drowning.
He is called Leviathan, and named for rolling,”
—William Stanley Merwin (b. 1927)
“The technological landscape of the present day has enfranchised its own electorates—the inhabitants of marketing zones in the consumer goods society, television audiences and news magazine readerships... vote with money at the cash counter rather than with the ballot paper at the polling booth.”
—J.G. (James Graham)
