Some affordable housing residents in San Mateo County now have access to the pilot project of a free transit pass compatible with every public transit agency in the nine-county Bay Area.
Affordable housing residents at properties managed by MidPen Housing gained access to the Clipper BayPass program Monday as regional transit officials seek to make public transit easier to use and gauge the demand for a universal fare system.
BayPass is also being made available to students at Santa Rosa Junior College and select students at San Francisco State University, San Jose State University and University of California, Berkeley.
