The MTA is walking back some of its proposed fare increases that are set to take effect in January, after it said it received over 1,300 comments over six weeks from riders, advocates and elected officials.

The seven-day cap, which allows riders who make 12 paid trips in a seven-day period to ride free for the rest of that week, will now only go up $1 – from $34 to $35. Previously, it would have risen to $36.

The cost of a single subway or bus ride is still expected to increase to $3 from $2.90.

The MTA also revised the four-hour expiration for Long Island Rail Road and Metro-North tickets and will instead allow all tickets to be usable until 4 a.m. the following day.

The age limit for the “family fare” program, which allows up to four children to ride commuter lines for $1 each with a fare-paying adult, will be raised from 11 to 17. Families will also be able to use this program at any time all week. The discount currently does not apply to morning rush-hour trains into Manhattan.

A proposed 4.4% fare increase for the Metro-North’s West of Hudson service, including the Pascack Valley and Port Jervis lines, was also canceled.

The MTA said the number of public comments it received after the announcement of fare increases in July was four times the number it received during the last fare hike in 2023.

The agency’s board is set to vote on the revised changes on Tuesday.
