Long Island Rail Road riders in Southampton will be paying more to ride the train beginning Friday.
According to the LIRR, most commuter rail tickets will increase between 8.19 percent and 9.31 percent, depending on ticket type and distance traveled. A complete list of new ticket prices are listed on the LIRR’s website.
For local riders using the Southampton and Bridgehampton stations, which are in the LIRR’s Zone 14, the peak one-way fare to Penn Station will now be $27 with the off-peak one-way fare $19.75.
Monthly tickets for travel from either station to Penn Station will now be $466 and weekly tickets for travel to and from Penn Station will be $149.
Fares on New York City subways and buses will increase on March 3, with a single subway ride rising to $2.50.

To avoid this fee, riders are advised by the Metropolitan Transportation Authority to retain used MetroCards and continue to refill them.
