SEPTA: SEPTA's first fare increase since 2017 now in effect

SEPTA implemented its first fare increase since 2017 on Sunday. All subway, trolley and bus rides now cost $2.50, and Regional Rail tickets cost $0.25 to $1 more, depending on where riders get on and off. SEPTA averted another 21.5% fare increase that was proposed to take effect in January, thanks to an influx of state funding.
