Metro-North Fare Hikes Start NOW!

With the Metro-North fare increases starting March 1st, I thought I’d be clever and buy my March monthly now and beat the announced 3.76%-4.25% boost on monthly tickets.

Not so fast. Metro-North was just a little smarter than me, and my Web ticket cost me a full $7.84 more than it did last month.

I spent several minutes trying to figure out what percent of my old fare of $208.74 that $7.84 represented, and am fairly certain it’s 3.76%. So I guess I got off easy.

Next thing you know, those $2.25 Sam Adams will be going up to $2.50.
