Fares go up tomorrow

February 29, 2008 at 10:11 am

Metro fares are going up 25 cents tomorrow, so remember to bring those extra quarters.

UPDATE 12:29 PM: Via Seattlest:

According to the Metro rep we just got on the phone, you can either keep the old pass and pay an extra quarter each time you get on, or go down to the Second and Jackson office (201 S. Jackson) to pay the difference. (You’ll get a new pass.) Lucky holders of a three-month pass for the months January, February and March will not be liable for that extra quarter until their passes run out.

This really sucks if you bought a $1.50 pass, because it will now mean you have to bring a quarter with you ever time you want to ride the bus:

You could always buy a 25 cent puget pass and carry both…

Alright! I bought the Magic 3-Mo Pass! I knew buying one every three months would pay off.
