The Allan Labor Government is making it easier for families to celebrate the festive season with two days of free public transport across the network. Minister for Public and Active Transport Gabrielle Williams today announced public transport will be free on Christmas Day and New Year’s Eve across all metro and regional trains, trams and buses.
Editorialised headline, because the actual title makes no mention of the fare increase they stuck in down the bottom
From 1 January 2025, the cost of a daily fare anywhere across the Victorian network will be capped at $11 or $5.50 for a daily concession – an increase of 40 cents and 20 cents respectively.
This increase is referring to the daily fare cap, right? If I understand correctly, it has made no mention of price changes for individual fares.
We don’t really do individual fares anymore, at least across the Myki network. A daily ticket/the daily cap is just the price of 2x 2-hour fares. Although the daily cap is marketed kind of as it’s own thing, it’s more accurate to say that the price of a 2 hour fare is going up 20c FF/10c Conc.
