good morning chicago:
The Chicago Transit Authority is proposing to increase bus and train fares under its 2010 budget that will be unveiled today to help close a projected budget gap of up to $300 million.
But the outlines of the fare hikes as well as proposed service reductions are contained in a legal ad the agency placed in the Chicago Tribune this morning.
The major changes would include:
• Basic train fares to $3 from $2.25.
• Basic bus fares to $2.50 from $2.25.
• Express bus fares to $3 from as little as $2.25 now.
• Full fare 30-day passes to $110 from $86.• Seven-day passes to $30 from $23.
facepalm
it’s like they want me to drive a car instead of riding their trains and busses.
