A reminder that transit fares are going up starting on Canada Day.

Beginning Sunday, July 1, transit fares will increase by five to 10 cents.

Single-use concession fares will increase by five cents for Stored Value fares and 10 cents for cash fares.

Single-use adult fares will increase by 10 cents (this includes HandyDART).

DayPass fares will increase by 25 cents.

Monthly pass fares will increase between $1 and $2, depending on zone type.

Fare increases will be the same on West Coast Express.

“Phase One of the Mayors Council’s 10-Year Vision calls for much-needed transit investments to increase capacity, reduce overcrowding and introduce bus service to new areas,” said a TransLink statement posted on its website. “To help fund this, the Mayors’ Council identified annual increases to transit fares over the next decade, which was announced in November 2016 as part of Phase One‘s approval. These minor fare increases will help bring more and better service to everyone in the region.”
