Public Transport

To The Age        Tuesday, May 29, 2007

It's strange that tram fares are going up when many fares are not even collected. Some 8am trams are so full, they just whiz past.  When one stops, it is sometimes so packed there is no hope of reaching the ticket machine.

Despite the traffic jams, the petrol imports and the talk of emissions, they are obviously not trying to attract more commuters onto public transport.
