Welcome 2024, good-bye free bus fares in Miami-Dade 

The start of the new year brought many changes to Miami-Dade, including the end of the free bus fare program that started in November 2023.

Miami-Dade County’s freeze on collecting bus fares and parking fees has ended after the clock struck midnight on New Year’s Eve, the Department of Transportation and Public Works (DTPW) announced. 

The county’s freeze was instituted on November 13, 2023 and was launched alongside the Better Bus Network to ease the transition to new routes for riders and operators in Miami-Dade that were impacted by the changes.

The MetroConnect service will remain free, the DTPW confirmed.
