Outside of the suburban areas folks are paying a lot of money for a monthly ticket (in some cases up to €200 per month), now they are being charged at least another €32 per month for the same service.
Its not just just a case of people within towns not walking or cycling to the train but also the estates that were allowed spring up in small villages miles away from train stations where there was never any public transport in place. Yet this was all allowed go ahead by the local authorities and the govt.
Now all of these people are being hit with a choice, stump up the extra cash for CIE property development or as AndrewMc pointed out, go back to the car.
Some choice.
