Metromover Remains Free For Public Use
The downtown Metromover system will remain free for now as Dade County commissioners rejected a plan yesterday to add a fare by a vote of 10-2.

It would have cost between $2.4 million and $9 million to begin collecting fares, and an additional $525,000 every year. A fare of $1 would have generated between $1.8 million and $2.7 million each year, meaning that it would have taken years to recoup the costs.

The county is now considering privatizing the system, according to a report in the Herald.

Metro Mover rides may no longer be free.
Since its creation in the 1980s the downtown Metromover system has always been free of charge.  This may becoming to an end though as city and county planners are now moving forward with motions to put a final vote on whether there should be a charge of $1 per ride on the Metromover. The costs to convert to a paid system will be between $2.4 million and $9 million and could it could take years to recoup those costs.  There's also an additional $525,000 of ongoing annual maintenance that wouldn't including any issues that will come up in the future. 

The positive:  County Officials say it will bring in an estimated revenue between $1.8 million and $2.7 million each year.  This additional renvenue would go towards paying other transit related projects
