Fare Restoration: January 2024

C-TRAN is proposing to begin restoring fares following a fare reduction that was implemented in 2022 and extended through 2023. The fare reduction was implemented to help support the community as it transitioned out of the pandemic; however, as we continue our path forward, C-TRAN has made a commitment to conduct annual fare reviews in support of our current service and future growth. If approved, the proposed fare increase will take effect January 1, 2024.

Why restore fares now?

C-TRAN is committed to reviewing its fares on an annual basis. Our review process was originally scheduled to begin in July of 2023; however, with TriMet’s annual fare proposal occurring earlier in the year, and the potential impact it may have on Regional fares, C-TRAN opted to begin their process a bit earlier in support of this partnership and to provide clarity for the riders who use both transit systems.
