About this organization
Mission
Seamless Bay Area Alliance’s mission is to transform the Bay Area’s fragmented and inconvenient public transit into a world-class, unified, equitable, and widely-used system by building a diverse movement for change and promoting policy reforms.
About
The Bay Area's 27 transit agencies each have different fare systems, which creates barriers to transit use, especially for riders who need to use more than one agency to get to their destination. Seamless Bay Area Alliance advocates for an integrated and affordable transit fare system that can attract new transit riders and make transit more affordable for low-income riders. Studies have estimated that integrated transit fares in the Bay Area would help reduce emissions from transportation (California's largest source) by attracting tens of thousands of new transit riders and reducing up to 800,000 daily vehicle miles traveled.
