Brampton Transit fare changes effective March 5, Monday

As approved through the 2018 Budget, the Brampton Fare changes effective from Monday.

The fare changes aimed to help support the cost of transit services, such as the addition of 65,000 service hours to improve overall transit service including the extension of 505 Züm Bovaird along Airport Road.

The Cash, adult and youth fares are increasing but there are no changes to child and senior fares.

The budget was approved at a Special Council Meeting held December 6, 2017, by Brampton City Council  that will result in an overall property tax increase of 2.7 per cent in 2018.
