subway fare

Underground train price

Subway fare is the price paid to ride a subway system.

Most urban transit systems charge a flat fare regardless of distance traveled, though some calculate fare by zones or stops.

The subway fare went up again this year.

Fare also refers to the ticket or payment itself: I forgot to load subway fare onto my card.
