Commuter Connection Price to Drop

Beginning January 13, 2020, riders on the South Fork Commuter Connection will no longer pay the additional one dollar charge for bus service. 

Riders on the South Fork Commuter Connection will pay $3.25 each way for the Long Island Railroad ticket. The bus service from the train to the rider’s destination, commonly referred to as the last mile, which is provided by East Hampton and Southampton Towns and had been $1, will now be free. 

In addition to saving money, this change in fare policy will streamline ticketing by allowing riders to purchase regular LIRR daily tickets, weekly tickets and monthly passes.  They will also be able to order their tickets through the LIRR ‘e ticketing’ app.

The South Fork Commuter Connection was created last March in an effort to get more commuters on the South Fork to use the train.  It has grown three times in popularity since its inception.  But the town wants to provide more incentive to riders to get on board.
