‹ An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business Equal public transport fares
Summary
Senator Conway advocates a standardised fare structure, including free student transport, and calls for debate on urban and rural transport equality.
We need a standardised fare structure across the board. I would go so far as to say that students should get free public transport. It would encourage them. It would create a culture of using public transport that would benefit the environment and be better for our communities. We need to have a structured debate on equality of transport, both urban and rural.
