Rio Metro ACCESS is part of Rio Metro’s Social Service Fare Program. Its purpose is providing free transportation options for New Mexico residents living in households with income at or below 150% of the Federal Poverty Guidelines as established by the US Department of Health and Human Services.
Rio Metro ACCESS can issue free train and bus passes to social services agencies so that they can distribute free passes to their clients thanks to a grant from New Mexico Department of Transportation.
Rio Metro ACCESS is committed to help improve transportation needs in Valencia, Bernalillo, Sandoval and Santa Fe counties by providing free and reliable transportation passes to Social Service Agencies.
These passes will be given to social service agencies that meet the criteria described in our Program Policy to then be distributed to low-income* clients receiving employment, housing or personal stability assistance, and other activities to improve their lives.
*Low income is defined as individuals living in households with incomes at or below 150% of the Federal Poverty Guidelines as established by the US Department of Health and Human Services.
