Chicago Commuter Train System Calls for Fare Hikes in 2026 Budget
Metra announced fare hikes in its 2026 budget, part of a broader regional policy requiring the Chicago Transit Authority, Metra, and Pace to raise fares.
Metra fares will rise 13% to 15%, depending on the fare and the distance traveled. This will be Metra's first across-the-board fare increase since 2018.
"We are proposing a fare increase to start in February 2026. We believe that increase and our continued efforts to contain costs will be enough to get us through 2026; no service cuts should be needed."
