AC Transit launched Tempo Line 1T service on August 9, with free rides for the first 90 days after the start of service through the first week of November. On November 9, Tempo Line 1T will start collecting fares.

Here is what you need to know:

The cost to ride Tempo is the same as AC Transit local fares
Tempo riders must pay before boarding
Proof of payment is required to ride
Riders who fail to show proof of payment may receive a citation

There are several ways to pay fares on Tempo. Riders can tag their Clipper card or purchase a paper ticket at the station before boarding. Riders can also use any active AC Transit pass as a form of payment for Line 1T.

Line 1T riders are required to have proof of payment while on board. Be prepared to show a valid ticket, pass, or Clipper card to fare inspectors if asked. Failure to show proof of payment may result in a citation.
