Dust off those old set of wheels because the MTA just approved a fare increase to go into effect on May 31. The price for a single ride on the NYC Subway will soon be $2.50, up 50 cents from the $2 fare it currently sits at.
And don’t think you’ll be paying more for better service either. The MTA also plans to cut bus routes and Subway lines in order to prevent the MTA from going broke.
