Interesting! I had no idea this was coming. I don’t really use public transport, are people spending more than 50 a week?
If you’re travelling from the far east/west/north/south suburbs to the CBD twice a day Monday-Friday, yeah.
If you’re traversing through central Auckland, yep.
From Sunday 21 July enjoy unlimited travel by bus, train and inner-harbour ferries for no more than $50 a week. Terms apply.
Neat. Though I think I skate in just under the threshold…
and I bet Fuller’s Ferries are excluded.I was wrong:The fare cap applies to bus, train and inner-harbour ferry services. Inner-harbour ferry services include Devonport, Bayswater, Birkenhead and Te Onewa Northcote Point.
$50 * 52 = $2600 yr!
That is way less than rego / wof / maintenance / insurance / fuel. I wish I could rely on PT in Taupo…but alas no.
We could get away with being a 1 car family at that rate.
