The last adjustment to Bee-Line student cards was made in 2015
Westchester County is proposing expanding the value of student OMNY cards to four trips a day seven days a week, and extending the card’s validity for 12 months, from the summer until the start of the new school year.
Westchester County Executive Ken Jenkins said: “Today's students don't just go to school and come home. They work, participate in sports and activities, volunteer, and have responsibilities throughout the community. By expanding the OMNY student benefit to four trips per day, seven days a week, including during the summer, we're giving students the flexibility and independence to travel throughout Westchester County and get where they need to go safely and affordably.”
The County is also proposing discounting the student ONMY card, having the cost be 50% off based on a four week month and having the price go from $58 to $70.
