Caltrain Raises Rates July 1
It will now cost 25 cents more to travel in Peninsula and South Bay.
If you plan to head to a San Francisco Giants game or HP Pavilion for a concert on Caltrain after July 1, make sure you bring a little extra money.
The base rate to ride Caltrain to all zones will increase by a quarter after a vote by the transit system's Board of Director to generate revenue for operations, according to Caltrain Spokesperson Christine Dunn.
Ticket prices fund about 44 percent of the total cost of running the trains, Dunn added.
