Instead, the Mayor has opted to raise fares significantly, moving us towards having some of the most expensive fares in North America. Most notably, his transit working group consisting of several councillors proposed many changes. These consist of raising the monthly seniors’ pass by 120%, eliminating free passes for 11 and 12 year olds and raising fares by 5% for all riders. This brings Ottawa’s fares past the $4.00 mark.
This might be have been an acceptable solution if the service was reliable and valued as such.
