Express Lanes START is an 18 month trial program, specifically targeted to make the I-880 Express Lanes more economically accessible for lower-income Bay Area residents. Drivers who meet the eligibility criteria can apply for this program, and if approved, they will get a 50% discount on all tolled trips in the I-880 Express Lanes using FasTrak®. It's important to note that, as a trial program, the discount does not extend to other Bay Area Express Lanes.
Eligibility for this program is extended to residents of the nine-county Bay Area with a gross annual household income of up to 200% of the federal poverty level. For more detailed information on the program, eligibility criteria, and application process, visit ExpressLanesStart.org.
If you don't currently have a FasTrak account, you can still be approved for Express Lanes START. However, to benefit from the toll discount, you must open a FasTrak account, which can be done through BayAreaFasTrak.org.
