In Cornwall, UK, the local council has started something similar but not just for summer. Now a person can buy 7 day ticket for £10 and can travel anywhere in Cornwall on any bus. The stated goal for this policy is to encourage people to use public transport as much as possible, and to nudge older citizens to use public transport instead of driving themselves.
- lambdas 4y agoMore needs to be done by the government. I was interested to learn the other day that Great British Rail will recieve the same, if not less, in subsidies. It's purely to 'streamline' buying tickets and the ticket costs will be barely effected. It's being fronted as preventing further taxpayer costs, but I can't but feel maybe if there weren't a million private ToC's and the RoC's bleeding the railways dry this would be a non-issue.
