    Sounds like you’ve got public transit costs on par with America. What’s a city bus ride cost?

    As a New Yorker I’m deeply envious of your rail network. I’d kill for Amtrak to have that kind of coverage even at current prices.

      Last month I had to pay $14 for a one stop return ticket because we got on a Long Island train instead of the metro at Jamaica. Stupid prices.
