Tickets

Ticket books are no longer sold, but previously purchased tickets are still valid for a one-way trip. Put your ticket into the farebox. Ask the driver for a transfer if you need to board a different route to complete your trip. 

Transferring Between Routes

Transfers are free with a ticket or paid fare - just ask the driver for a transfer when you board and pay. If you have a Limitless Pass, you just show pass anytime your board a Lexpress bus. No transfer slips needed!

Transfers are valid only on the day issued when boarding in Lexington Town Center and continuing a one-way trip on a different route

Passes are good for unlimited rides through the date listed on the face of the card. Passes are non-transferrable - they cannot be shared with another person. Each time you board Lexpress, show the driver the front of your pass. If you do not have your pass, you must pay the cash fare or use a ticket.

Refunds

Fares, tickets, and passes are non-refundable and will not be replaced if lost or stolen.
