Metlink fares set to rise
Fares on Metlink services across the region will be increasing in line with inflation from February 2021 following a recent decision by Greater Wellington.
In its annual fares review, Greater Wellington looks at the expectations of revenue and costs and determines what fare adjustments might be required for the following year to maintain good quality public transport services across the region.
One of the reasons given for the increase is a falling revenue due to Covid-19.
Under the changes most bus and rail non-cash fares including Snapper, 10-trip fares, rail monthly and MonthlyPlus passes and Wellington and Eastbourne 30 Day passes will see an average increase of 1.5 percent.
