TL;DR
- The new public transport fare in Bogotá will be $3,550, an increase of $350 (10.9%) from the current price.
- The fare hike is primarily due to a 23% increase in the minimum wage for 2026 and other rising operational costs like IPC, IPP, and input prices.
- Despite the fare increase, the district will maintain subsidies and free rides for vulnerable populations, including the elderly, disabled, and low-income citizens.
- The 125-minute (2 hours and 5 minutes) zero-fare transfer window will remain unchanged.
- The monthly TransMiPass will stay at $160,000, even though the transport subsidy increased by 24.5%.
- Bogotá plans to modernize its fleet by adding 705 new electric buses between 2026 and 2027.
- A draft decree for the fare change was published for public comment from January 2nd to 8th.
- The fare adjustment is considered essential to guarantee the ongoing operation of the public transport service.
