Pace plans to end some bus transfer fees, introduce new passes

Pace riders shouldn't fear fare hikes next year - and, in fact, may find riding on the suburban bus system is more affordable, as the agency looks to eliminate or lower transfer costs and introduce new one- and three-day passes.

Those plans were outlined Wednesday in the proposed 2023 budget introduced at Pace's monthly board meeting.

Under the proposal, Pace will introduce new Pace-CTA passes offering unlimited rides on both systems. Passes would be good for one day ($5) or three days ($15).
