The Montgomery County Council will review County Executive Ike Leggett’s proposal on Tuesday to generate roughly $2.7 million annually by raising Ride On bus fares and parking rates in Bethesda and Silver Spring.

Leggett’s proposal would increase monthly Ride On bus fees from $30 to $45 countywide and would raise parking rates by 10 cents an hour in Bethesda and Silver Spring, as well as begin charging for Saturday parking in Bethesda.
