Should Calgary have a Free Fare Zone?

from This is Calgary

Calgary Transit has had a Free Fare Zone along 7th Avenue for decades. It started as an experiment in the late 70s, before we even had an LRT, and has become part of the city's downtown identity. But - should we keep it? The FFZ is currently being reviewed. This week, host Jenny Howe speaks with Sprawl founder Jeremy Klaszus about the history, benefits, and prospects of the Free Fare Zone.
