Student Fares

Effective with the 2023-2024 academic year, the School District of Janesville is paying for student JTS rides on behalf of all middle and high school students. Students may ride fare-free when showing their School District of Janesville ID card or ID app to the bus driver. Students must have their ID to receive a fare-free ride. Students may use any in-city bus route during any operating hours. Rides are NOT limited to before and after school. This means students may attend school, pursue employment, volunteer opportunities or after school activities with the assurance they can get to and from their destination fare-free!

Use of Transfers

One free transfer may be issued when paying your fare. Please ask for transfers when boarding. These conditions apply to transfers:
  • Tell the driver you need to transfer when boarding
  • Valid only at time shown
  • Valid only on day of issue
  • Cannot be used to return on same route
  • Must be placed in the trash upon boarding

JTS will make every reasonable effort to ensure you make your transfer.  However, JTS cannot guarantee transfer connections due to variations in traffic and weather conditions.

Reminder Regarding Fare Materials - Outdated fare media (for example, ten-ride punch passes) will be exchanged for updated fare media at the JTS Office for one month following a fare increase, provided the paper fare media is unused (no punches). To receive an exchange, the difference in cost must be paid at the time of exchange. Used fare media (such as a partially punched pass) must be used within one month following a fare increase.

For questions about JTS services, please call JTS at (608) 755-3150 or submit your question online.
