Calgary Transit Fares Increase to $4

Come January, Calgary’s single-ride transit fare will increase to $4, surpassing other major Canadian cities, while monthly bus passes will rise to $126. Advocacy groups express frustration over the fare hike, especially given the city’s inadequate transit service. Calgary’s city council has approved $6 million for service improvements and $9 million for safety enhancements amid rising violence on transit. Additionally, express routes will be phased out, raising concerns about longer commutes for regular riders.
