HTN: NFTA Won't Hike Metro Fares Again

Good news for mass-transit commuters. The Niagara Frontier Transportation Authority will not raise fares to two dollars on July 1st. The agency has been able to fill a projected seven-million dollar budget gap. On New Year's Day, fares were bumped from a-dollar-50 to a-dollar-75. At that time the Authority warned a second fare hike might be needed this summer.
