The TTC is rolling out a new fare capping program next year that’s intended to make transit more affordable for commuters in Toronto. 

On Monday, Toronto Mayor Olivia Chow and TTC Chair Jamaal Myers announced that a new fare capping system is coming to the TTC in September 2026. Under the new model, TTC riders will automatically ride for free after taking 47 trips in a calendar month with no upfront costs. 

“We’re making life more affordable for people who rely on transit,” said Mayor Chow. “With fare capping, you pay as you go, and once you’ve taken 47 trips in a month, the rest of your rides are free. No more deciding whether you can afford a monthly pass upfront. No more overpaying if you don’t ride enough to make a pass worth it.”
