A new Day Pass will replace round-trip tickets and offer unlimited travel until 4 a.m. the next day. Mobile users will get a free ride after 10 trips in 14 days under a new pay-as-you-go discount.

The onboard ticket surcharge will increase by $2, including for tickets activated in the TrainTime app.

Reduced fares will remain available for seniors, people with disabilities, and Medicare recipients at all times.
