Transit bump could 'decrease ridership': Free Transit Edmonton


 
EDMONTON --
More than 1,400 Edmontonians signed a petition calling for a freeze on transit fares as the cost is expected to rise.
The planned bump would see fares go from $3.50 to $3.75.
On Monday, Free Transit Edmonton an organization that believes in a fare free transit system, presented their petition to city council before they met with Edmonton Transit Service to discuss the change.
Paige Gorsak an organizer with Free Transit Edmonton, said while the 25 cent increase doesn’t seem like much, it could mean the difference of some individuals finding other modes of transportation.
“We’re seeing our bus fare go up to being one of the highest in the country,” Gorsak said. “Above Vancouver, above Toronto, above Montreal for a system that I don’t know would compare if we were looking at services offered.”
