Pricing
(06 Aug 2020, 10:11 am)streetdeckfan Im sure I've said this before, but it's the people paying the higher, single prices that allow the day/week/monthly tickets to be lower. If they lowered the price of the single tickets, income would go down, and they'd have to recover that some way.
There are some fees that don't go away no matter how short the journey, card fees are ahold example these days. One larger transaction is going to be cheaper than several small transactions that add up to the same value.
If you disagree with me, I'd be genuinely interested in your view on it
