How to Ride Metro Transit (55+)

Did you know our transit system includes low-price, on-demand rides with Metro Micro? Get to know all Metro Transit options on the Northside, including the Blue Line Light Rail Extension. Learn how to read a schedule and purchase a ticket. Leave class with informational materials and a coupon for a free ride. 

Community Education uses a sliding scale model for program fees so our programs can be financially sustainable and more equitable. Lifelong Learning 55+ classes have discounted price options already among the options. Participants are asked to pick the price that they are able to pay. By more clearly articulating our lower cost options, we have removed the barrier that some may have felt in making scholarship requests. When participants sign up at the higher price levels, they help make the program more sustainable.

Refund Policy

Refunds (minus a $5 transaction fee) are given if you call or email at least three business days before a class begins. Full refunds will be given for any class that needs to be canceled by the site.
