The state Department of Transportation is proposing a fare hike for Metro North riders along the New Haven Line.  Wilton Senator Toni Boucher, a ranking member of the legislature's Transportation Committee, says the hits keep coming for commuters and serves as a disincentive for people to stay in Connecticut. 

There are several public hearings in September about the proposed fare hike, though none in the Greater Danbury area.  The closest is Waterbury on September 13th. 

The DOT has not yet listed an email address for the public to comment on the fare hikes without attending one of the hearings.
