The Municipal Transportation Agency has stated that most public transportation fares in San Francisco will increase on January 1.
The transportation fare update was released by the agency on Sunday. On social media, the organization announced that the cost of a single ride for an adult between the ages of 19 and 64 using a MuniMobile or Clipper card would increase from $2.50 to $2.75.
The cash fee for a single ride, whether paid at a Metro ticket machine or aboard a Muni vehicle, will stay at $3.
Unlimited one-day trips on Muni streetcars, buses, and trains will now cost $5.50 instead of $5.
The Clipper “M” pass, which includes unlimited adult admission and cable car, will now cost $85, instead of $81, per month.
The monthly Clipper “A” pass, which includes unlimited adult access to San Francisco’s cable cars and BART, will now cost $102 instead of $98.
Seniors 65 and above, as well as those with impairments, will now be able to use the MuniMobile or Cipper card to get a single ride discount fare of $1.35 instead of $1.25. The Metro Ticket Machine or cash discount fare will stay at $1.50.
Seniors (65 years of age or older) and those with disabilities who use the MuniMobile or Cipper card will now pay $43 per month instead of $40.
Single cable car rides will still cost $8, or $4 for the elderly and crippled. Youngsters under four ride free.
The unlimited riding one-day visitor passport will now cost $14 instead of $13. The cost of the three-day passport will increase from $31 to $33. The cost of the seven-day passport will increase from $41 to $44.
Youth tickets (18 and under), low-to-moderate-income fares (65 and over), and fares for those with impairments will all continue to be free.
For adults with low incomes, the Clipper discount rate for a single journey will now be $1.35 instead of $1.25. The $40 monthly pass will now cost $43.
The modifications follow BART’s announcement that it would increase fares by 5.5% on January 1st “to keep pace with inflation.”
