Denton County Transportation Authority pricing changes that incentivize passengers to ride more often take effect Monday.
The changes include reduced day passes, including a 50 percent cut on single- and 31-day passes. DCTA's Local Annual Pass will also drop from $650 to $480.
The agency will also eliminate connection and transfer fares, but prices for regional tickets -- which can be used on DART, TRE and Trinity Metro -- will increase.
DCTA will also make minor changes to some of its routes, as well as extend a program in conjunction with the University of North Texas to provide students will a free Lyft ride within a specified area from 2-7 a.m. seven days a week.
