Subte users in Buenos Aires will face a 67% fare increase from next week after a city court ruled in favour of the hike. A court approved the controversial decision to increase subte fares from $4.50 to $7.50. The Chamber’s decision has been met with substantial resistance, especially on the part of Del Gaiso. “After three months, we still do not know whether the technical value of the subway tariff is right. The Chamber lifted the injunction without resolving [the issue],” said Del Gaiso through his Twitter account.
