MyCiTi fares may increase from July due to high diesel price

2026-05-22

The City’s Urban Mobility Directorate wants to give MyCiTi commuters as much notice as possible of an upcoming fare increase so that households can budget ahead. It is likely that the MyCiTi fares will increase from July 2026 because of the sustained high diesel price. The City has protected MyCiTi commuters from the fuel price increases since March this year and will also do so in June. However, should the diesel price increase at the level we have seen over the past two months, a MyCiTi fare increase will be unavoidable.
