Big changes are starting for TransLink commuters today.

Starting Monday morning, bus zones are no more. The changes are part of the rollout of TransLink’s beleaguered $194-million Compass Card program.

Riders will pay $2.75 for a one-zone ticket to ride on the entire bus and HandyDART networks.

Starting today, riders with Compass Cards will no longer have to tap out when exiting the bus.
