Savings Calculator


Calculate commuting costs

Can using Metro Bus or Rail save you money? Check it out for yourself. This calculator will compute the costs of gas and parking, but not additional costs like wear & tear on your vehicle, tolls and insurance. It will give you a good idea how much Metro can save you each month. The fares represented are standard, although reduced fares are available.

Savings with a monthly Metro Pass can be even greater. At $64 for a Single Zone Pass and $77 for an All Zone, Metro passes give you unlimited use of the system for an entire month. You could use Metro for more than getting to work, without spending more on gas. Use the Metro Advantage Program and the savings get bigger.
