Westminster University has a partnership with UTA to offer students, staff, and faculty free transit on the majority of UTA services.

Who Qualifies: Students with a valid Westminster University ID who are actively taking courses, working, or living on campus, and all faculty and staff currently employed by the university.

Cost: FREE

Valid: Valid on UTA Bus, Express Bus, TRAX, Streetcar, UTA On Demand and Frontrunner. Not valid on UTA Paratransit or Ski services.

HOW TO USE YOUR PASS

When you board UVX, TRAX, or FrontRunner, tap your ID on the card reader on or near the platform. Tap again when you exit the platform at your destination.

When you board a UTA bus, tap your student ID on the electronic card reader near the door. Tap again when you exit.

WHY TAP ON/TAP OFF?

Tapping your card when you board and exit is an important part of the transit pass agreement between your university and UTA. These taps don’t keep track of who you are or where you go, but they do:

• Show that valid fare has been paid for your transit trip
• Tell UTA how many people are riding which routes
• Gather ridership data so UTA can adjust service to better meet riders’ needs
• Provide info about how many students and staff are using transit passes
• Prove to your university that the transit pass is a helpful benefit for students and staff

As the rider, you are responsible for tapping on and off when you board and exit. Please do your part to make sure the pass program works effectively.

Every valid Westminster ID is an active UTA pass. If you need to replace your ID, go to the Health Wellness and Athletic Center (HWAC) or call 801-832-2860.
