After years of talk about the TTC's plans to eventually phase out legacy fares, the time has almost come for riders to use up any remaining tokens, tickets, and day passes they may have hanging around.The transit agency has been urging customers to spend these fare types while they still can since at least 2019 — when the sale of the older fare types was discontinued at stations — but after a deadline to use them was finally set for the end of 2024, some pushback from advocates prompted the commission to extend the cutoff by a few months.The new date is quickly approaching in just a few weeks, though, with June 1, 2025 serving as the last day staff will ever accept tokens, single tickets or day passes to ride the rocket.This is in line with ongoing fare modernization across the network, and encourages travellers to transition to contactless payment methods such as Presto cards and bank cards.
