Fare Collection
The Bloor–Danforth line accepts and sells all types of fares at each of the collector booths in the subway stations. In addition to this tokens and passes are also sold from terminals which can be used at collector booths or be used to operate the automatic entrances. The Presto smartcard can also be used to buy a fare at several stations, while debit machines are being added to make it easier to purchase passes.
All stations except Chester connect to surface TTC bus and/or streetcar routes during regular operating hours. Such connections involve a transfer, which is a free supplementary ticket, obtained at the point of entering the transit system, allowing the rider to transfer to another route, or a fare-paid terminal, which is an area within an interchange only accessible to holders of valid tickets or tokens.

Famous quotes containing the words fare and/or collection:
“who should moor at his edge
And fare on afoot would find gates of no gardens,
But the hill of dark underfoot diving,
Closing overhead, the cold deep, and drowning.
He is called Leviathan, and named for rolling,”
—William Stanley Merwin (b. 1927)
“Psychobabble is ... a set of repetitive verbal formalities that kills off the very spontaneity, candor, and understanding it pretends to promote. It’s an idiom that reduces psychological insight to a collection of standardized observations, that provides a frozen lexicon to deal with an infinite variety of problems.”
—Richard Dean Rosen (b. 1949)
