TTC tokens and the Metropass will increase modestly on January 1, 2014. However the TTC Board decided to hold the cash fare at $3 in consideration of the unemployed who frequently pay cash because they cannot afford to buy tokens in bulk or the monthly pass. Tokens will rise a nickel from $2.65 to $2.70 and the Metropass is will increase five dollars from $128 to $133. There was much fretting among board members and TTC brass st Wednesday’s but the increases are likely to be fairly easily absorbed by most riders.
