To accomplish this, we need the help of all Metrolink employees and riders. Our Code of Conduct is built on mutual respect and care for each other's well- being. Together we can make Metrolink a world-class experience.

Tickets must be presented to a conductor or fare inspector upon request. Tickets may be purchased at a ticket machine, at the station or on the Metrolink Mobile App before boarding. Fares are used to fund safe, reliable train service.
