  • One way travel between Austin and Kyle; Kyle and San Marcos; San Marcos and New Braunfels; or New Braunfels and San Antonio for half-fare, (one crescent punch; two crescent punches are made to “void” each bobcat head).

    • One Zone Half-fare: $3.00

 BT Interurban punch card

Tickets: Save money and purchase tickets at any of our authorized distribution locations. Tickets are sold in a punch-card of ten one-way full-fare trips. Cards are discounted at $40.00 for student, faculty and staff of Texas State, the $40.00 discount is only available to persons presenting a valid Texas State I.D. The general public may purchase a punch-card for $45.00; still a 25% discount over the cash fare.
