What is Ride Transit?
Ride Transit, which is part of SRTA’s Commuter Credits Program, offers incentives in the form of toll credits to participants who also choose transit as a mobility option in the Georgia Express Lanes. When you ride Xpress, Cobb or Gwinnett transit more often than in the past, you can earn $5 in toll credits each additional day up to $150 – but act now! SRTA has a limited number of toll credits for the Ride Transit program, be sure to get your toll credits.
How Do I Participate in Ride Transit? It’s as easy as 1-2-3!
You will need to have a valid Peach Pass account and a transit pass (either a Breeze Card or Token Transit mobile ticketing account). When riding transit, you’ll need to take more trips than you did prior to participating and utilize eligible transit routes that travel in the Georgia Express Lane system during peak travel periods
Provide your Peach Pass and Transit Pass information (Breeze or Token Transit) by registering here and we’ll confirm you’re eligible via email within approximately one week (up to one month for Token Transit customers). We will provide your transit personal baseline and when you can start.
All you have to do now is Ride Transit more days per week than your baseline and start earning!

Detailed Program Information
To Earn Toll Credits, You’ll Need To:
- Have a Peach Pass and a transit pass (either a Breeze Card or Token Transit) to participate. Then, provide this and other contact information when your register.
- Peach Passes must be in the form of a Toll Personal Account. Important: BancPass and corporate accounts are not eligible.
- Ride an eligible transit route: Certain routes offered by the Atlanta-region Transit Link Authority (ATL), Gwinnett County Transit (GCT) and Cobblinc are eligible. Please make sure to only ride routes which are eligible for the program. Click Here for a list of the eligible routes.
- Take transit more often than you did prior to the program. We’ll average the number of days you took transit each week prior to the program based on the twelve weeks prior to your registration date – we call this your transit baseline. For example, if you ride transit Mondays and Tuesdays every week (but no other days), your weekly transit baseline is two transit days. You’ll need to take transit at least three days a week to earn a toll credit during the Ride Transit program. If you take transit all five days in a week, you’ll earn $15 that week.
- Take transit trips during peak hours from 6 – 10 a.m. or between 3 – 7 p.m.
- Ensure your registered toll transponder is not in the Express Lane system during the peak hours on any day you take transit.
- You can earn toll credits from your start date (which we will tell you by email) through June 30, 2023.
- Each week, we’ll send you an email letting you know how many credits you earned in the prior week. SRTA has a limited number of toll credits for the Ride Transit program. Be sure to get your toll credits.
- Important note: SRTA will conduct periodic quality reviews of credit earnings throughout the program and reserves the right to reverse any credits that were awarded in error for days that you drove in the Express Lanes during peak hours.
