The Metropolitan Transportation Authority yesterday voted to approve a fare hike and toll increase that many commuters, and more than 100 elected officials, have urged it to stave off at least until next spring.

About 86% of straphangers who purchase discounted passes, however, will pay more at the turnstile beginning March 2.
