Mark,
could you possibly highlight the following issue !
The increase in the cobh/cork + city bus services - monthly ticket has increased by 9.52% as opposed to 2.76% for the midleton/cork +city bus services – the differential defies all logic and the 9.52% increase can only be ascribed to gouging of a popular route.
The introduction of the Leapcard has been long promised on the cork commuter lines. One of the principles of its introduction is that the fare will be cheaper than the existing fares.
Currently the Cork/Cobh return fare is €8.50 cash. The proposed new Leap Card fare is €9.20 !
Also the cash fare is increasing by 14.1% compared to average increases of 3/4% on DART and Dublin Short Hop rail
