Jordan Rich is in for Dan tonight - Fares went up today on the MBTA. Now one-way trips on the Red, Blue, Orange or Green lines will cost 15 cents more. The monthly LinkPass, now $84.50, shoots up to $90, and a 7-Day LinkPass goes up a dollar and and a quarter. the legislature passed a law that allows the "T" to raise fares every 2 years with a cap of no more than 7% for each increase.
