TTC to commemorate Metropasses in 2016

As the TTC modernizes and begins its transition to the PRESTO fare card, 2016 will mark the last full year that Metropasses will be sold in their current form. Metropasses were first introduced on the TTC in May 1980 and cost $26. Today more than 321,000 customers purchase a TTC Metropass each month.

To commemorate the Metropass, the TTC has developed the 2016 Metropass collector series. Each pass issued this year will have an iconic Toronto image. The passes will include a clue to the following month’s image and at the end of the year customers who piece all 12 passes together will have a one of a kind TTC collectible that celebrates Toronto. The January pass is now available for purchase at collector booths.
