On Sunday, March 19, new fares will go into effect on the Harlem and Hudson Lines, as well as on the New Haven Line for travel between stations in New York State ONLY.
Look for the following specific changes:
- For monthly and weekly commuters, fares will increase by no more than 3.75%. Monthly ticket increases will not exceed $15.00.
- Intermediate monthly and weekly ticket increases are also capped at 3.75%. Some one-way fares will have larger increases only because fares must occur in 25-cent increments. For these one-way fares, any increase greater than 6 percent would be not more than 50 cents per ride.
- Monthly/Weekly UniTicket Fares will increase by approximately 4.0%.
PLEASE NOTE: The March 19 fare increase does not affect ticket prices for travel between stations in Connecticut and New York, or between stations within Connecticut
The MTA's continued discipline in keeping costs down has resulted in the lowest increase since 2009.
