Fair's fare: Push for Capital Connection to net public transport discount
Summary by Ground News
The Green Party is calling for the Capital Connection commuter train to be included in the Government's public transport discount. The Government announced it would be cutting public transport costs by 50 per cent in response to a global energy crisis brought on by the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Green Party MP Teanau Tuiono said he believed it should be included. The standard fare for the train trip between Palmerston North and Wellington is $35 one way.
