AGENDA ITEM TYPE:
Service or Fare Approval
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve contract and authorize the Executive Director to execute the 2025/2026 Ski Bus Pass Agreement as presented.
BACKGROUND:
UTA and Brighton Resort (“Brighton”) have a longstanding relationship. For many years, Brighton and UTA have contracted together to provide transit service to employees and ski passholders.
DISCUSSION:
UTA desires to continue this relationship with Brighton by entering into a new Ski Bus Pass Agreement for the 2025/26 ski season.
UTA will continue to invoice Brighton based on the monthly ridership counts using UTA’s Electronic Fare Collection (“EFC”) ridership counting system. Each resort has the option to choose one of two billing methods for its season passholders and employees, Daily with Adjustments and Daily with Weekly Cap. The Daily with Adjustments sets the daily fare rate to $8.00 per authorized rider for ski bus service and local service. The Daily with Weekly Cap limits the daily accumulated fare for the week to $28.00 per authorized rider and requires 100% pass participation by the selected user group. Brighton has elected the Daily with Adjustments option for their season pass holders and the Daily with Weekly Cap for their employees.
