Assuming non-regular or 1st time punters are happy with the service, they have the potential to become regular passengers. Paying full-whack going forward.
I would hazard a guess that those living in the areas covered by the ticket are already aware of what Darlo has (or hasn't) to offer them.
Sorry, if I've missed something, but how can it possibly be legal for a local authority to subsidise "discounts" on commercial bus services - let alone on a single operator?
