Waymo Launches $3 Credit Program to Boost Bay Area Public Transit Use

The initiative offers credits for rides to select transit stations, aiming to enhance sustainable transportation options.

  • Waymo is offering a $3 credit to riders who use its autonomous vehicles to travel to or from specific transit stations in San Francisco and the Peninsula.
  • The program started on October 17 and will run until November 15, with credits usable for future rides through December 31.
  • Eligible stations include select BART, Muni, and Caltrain stations, such as Glen Park and 4th & King Street.
  • Waymo's pilot program seeks to promote public transit use and is the first of its kind among U.S. autonomous vehicle operators.
  • Though transit agencies like BART and Caltrain are aware of the program, they are not official partners, and there is no government funding involved.
