Commute from the North Bay into San Francisco or vice versa and starting Friday your journey to work is about to get more expensive.

Most tolls on the iconic span will go up by 25 cents. Fares for Golden Gate Transit buses and Golden Gate Ferry service will go up 4 percent.

The FastTrak toll on the bridge will increase to $6.50 for two-axle vehicles, $7.50 for Pay-by-Plate and $4.50 for carpool vehicles.

The one-way adult fare for the Larkspur Ferry will go up 50 cents to $11 and to $11.75 for the Sausalito Ferry.

According to the Golden Gate Bridge Highway and Transportation District, the hikes are part of a multi-year toll increase program approved by the Board of Directors in 2014 and will help in reducing a five-year budget shortfall.
