Raise Cleveland Fares To Five Cents And More
Cleveland August 7 five cent cash fare with dollar cent tickets will likely be adopted soon by the Municipal Traction Company after a council mayor conference. The move follows a deficit in streetcar operations since the system was taken over by the Municipal holding company to operate on a three cent basis. Officials favor the rate until prepaid cars are in use when most fares may be collected. The deficit is blamed on the free transfer trial and inconsistent conductor collections.
