Greater Wellington calls for community views on public transport fares
- Greater Wellington Regional Council
- Public consultation on the Future Fares Review is open and Greater Wellington wants the community’s views on changes to our region’s public transport fares. Greater Wellington’s Transport Committee Chair Roger Blakeley says, “one of our strategic priorities outlined in the Regional Public Transport Plan 2021 is to increase mode shift. The new fare types and potential zoning changes have real potential to encourage people out of their cars and onto public transport.”
