Fare Increase Ordered by Public Utilities Commission Denied Suspension
The Public Utilities Commission denied the Fall River Chamber of Commerce petition to suspend a fare increase on the Warren and Bristol line for 60 days. Beginning Thursday, Sept. 1, fares rise to 40 cents Bristol to Providence, with unchanged monthly tickets. The commission cited six month losses of $173,124.43 for the branch and noted the line’s ongoing financial strain and potential rate discrimination.
