Starting Friday, April 1 MiWay is reducing the price of the adult monthly pass. And, starting Sunday, May 1, Mississauga seniors can use their PRESTO fare cards to pay a $1 fare during off-peak hours.
The Mississauga transit agency’s decreasing the cost of a PRESTO adult monthly pass from $135 to $131.
In May, seniors only need their PRESTO card to pay when boarding MiWay buses. The senior $1 fare continues to be valid Mondays to Fridays from 8:30 a.m. until 3:30 p.m. and from 7 p.m. until 5:59 a.m. It’s also valid all day Saturdays, Sundays and holidays. At all other times, the senior PRESTO fare remains at $2.10 or you can buy a senior monthly pass on PRESTO for $65.
MiWay isn’t changing other fare prices.
MiWay passengers ages 6 to 12 pay child fares. Those ages 13 to 19 pay youth fares. You’ll pay an adult fare if you’re 20 to 64 years of age. Passengers age 65 or older pay senior fares.
