Metro fare changes take effect Sunday

Starting Sunday, June 30, Metro customers will see a slight fare increase, which will help keep fares in line with cost of living adjustments and allows us to keep running our current levels of service.

Last year, Metro increased fares for some trips. Metro's last general fare increase was in 2017.

This year, most fares are increasing 12.5%. The best way to find the new cost of a trip is by using the Trip Planner and setting the date to after June 30 to calculate your new fare.
