Starting July 1 it’s going to cost a little bit more to take public transit in Montreal.
The Greater Montreal-area public transport authority (ARTM) has announced that fares are going up slightly.
Starting July 1, single-unit, single-zone bus passes will increase by 25 cents to $3.75.
Ten-packs of single-zone passes will go up to $32.50. Monthly passes in single zones will go from $94 to $97.
There is no fare increase for commuters who travel between Montreal and either Laval or Longueuil, who will continue to pay the same price: $4.50.
Ten-packs of two-zone passes will go up to $42.50 and monthly passes for two-zone passes will go from $150 to $155.
REM users will also need to purchase a two-zone pass.

The ARTM is also introducing 24-hour and three-day passes that can be used for all modes of transit across all zones, with varying prices.
Reduced rates for children, students and those over 65 years old will continue.
However, starting July 1, Montreal residents 65 and older will now be able to ride the bus and metro for free.
