That means a regular, one-zone adult fare will increase from $2.95 to $3.00. Fares have increased yearly since the Mayors Council's 10-year Vision for Regional Transportation was announced in 2016, and fares are scheduled to increase until 2026. The plan also includes implementing more frequent service on 50 different bus routes that carry 650,000 passengers around Metro Vancouver daily. The Phase 1 plan is expected to increase annual transit trips to 272 million by 2026. Through expanded and improved infrastructure, the plan also aims to increase walking, cycling and transit trips in Metro Vancouver.
