even at $15, it's sweet. I would pay $5 per route, even, for routes I wanted. - sp commander amanda jones Feb 12, 12:38 20
- We should subpoll: What does a transit pass cost where you live? -- nm - Andie Feb 12, 12:38 19
  - no idea - there's only one bus in my town and it doesn't go anywhere useful - decline Feb 12, 12:50
  - $5 a day, then they have ORCA cards, you buy a regular route discount, pay as you go like a cash card -- nm - zeitgeist Feb 12, 12:48
  - $95 a month for crappy MARTA -- nm - Strongbad Feb 12, 12:46
  - $100 for a monthly CTA/Pace pass -- nm - nic to be determined Feb 12, 12:43

    - and 30 bucks a month to park at the train station. -- nm - groiny Feb 12, 12:43

    - see, in a lot of big cities with congested roads, a lot of people take these things called "subways" that don't get stuck in traffic. - Andie Feb 12, 12:42 1
      - Glad I live in crazy Florida! -- nm - JaxSean Feb 12, 12:50
  - I think I have rode one maybe twice in my life. -- nm - Spawn Feb 12, 12:40
  - I pay $129.75/month (that's the discounted subscription rate.) To just buy a monthly pass each month costs $141.50 /month. - Andie Feb 12, 12:40 4
    - The CTA pass is cheaper? Not expecting thst. -- nm - nic to be determined Feb 12, 12:44 3
      - CTA? not sure what that is. If you sign up for a year subscription (mailed to your house even) you get a cheaper rate. -- nm - Andie Feb 12, 12:45 2
        
        $100 a month -- nm - nic to be determined Feb 12, 12:47 1
