SAN FRANCISCO—Starting July 1, a trip on the San Francisco Bay Ferry will cost you anywhere from 5 to 40 cents more, according to an announcement from the Water Emergency Transportation Authority (WETA).
The price increases are part of the Five-Year Fare Program, which according to WETA is, “designed to establish consistent fare categories, streamline the types of tickets sold, and promote a consistent level of discount pricing across all S.F. Bay Ferry Services.”
The fare hikes on July 1 will be the first of new annual fare increases put into place to “offset inflationary cost increase, and rising operational and fuel costs,” WETA officials said.
