TTC fares will go up by 10 cents on New Year’s Day, but it remains Toronto City Council’s call as to whether the commission will move forward with controversial plans to dramatically cut back its service.
Cash fares will remain stable at $3 for adults and $2 for students and seniors, but tokens will increase from $2.50 to $2.60, and Metropasses will increase by $5 per month.The commission also agreed in principle to usher in 10 cent increases in 2013, 2014 and 2015. “We need to bring in some predictability … and get out of this annual cycle of how we are going to make ends meet,” said TTC chair Karen Stintz.
