*It can take up to 24 hours for the system to update.  Therefore, please make sure you load your Smart Card in advance to ensure the product is available when you tap your card on the bus. The system will use the current product until its exhausted, i.e. a 30-Day Urban Pass will not be eligible for activation until the previous 30-Day Urban Pass has expired. A 30-Day Urban Pass will not be activated until it has been tapped on the bus for the first time.
