25-cent fare hike due March 1

As is the case in almost every city around the country (just Google "fare increase"), the ATA will boost fares for Kansas City routes 25 cents to $1.50, effective March 1. The boost is primarily in response to lower sales tax revenue, the #1 funding source for Metro service. The whole store is here. The last increase, also 25 cents, was in 2005.

    transit fares in st. louis have just been raised to $2.00 for bus and $2.25 for light rail. plus 75 cents if you need a transfer. $1.50 would be a bargain.
