It will cost a bit more to ride Caltrain and park in one of its lots after its Board of Directors approved changes last Thursday to its fare rates and parking fees.
The approved changes included an increase to the Caltrain adult base fare by 50 cents. That will increase the amount paid for the day pass, eight-ride tickets and monthly passes. Eligible discount fares will remain at 50 percent of adult ticket prices and Clipper card holders will continue to get an approximate 15 percent discount, according to the transit agency.
Along with the fare hikes, Caltrain will increase daily parking fees at station lots from $5 to $5.50, and raise the monthly parking permit fee from $50 to $55, according to the transit agency.
The changes to the transit fares will go into effect on Feb. 28. The new parking rates changes will be enforced on July 1, according to the transit agency.
