The C-TRAN Board of Directors has approved a temporary, 12-month fare reduction in 2022. The change is primarily focused on easing the burden of transportation for those who continue to rely on C-TRAN, and for those who may return to our system during the next year.
The reduction will lower the Local fare from $1.80 to $1 per ride for an adult. The Adult Express fare will drop from $3.85 to $2.50 per ride. Some Honored/Youth fares will also be discounted accordingly, and the C-VAN fare would drop from $1.80 to $1. All daily and monthly caps in the Hop Fastpass system will remain unchanged. All Regional fares will also remain unchanged.

The temporary fare proposal is partially in response to recent sales tax collections exceeding budget projections, as well as additional stimulus funding. The reduced fares are scheduled to take effect on January 1, 2022.
