In town for a few months. Been watching the tap on rates on the trams.
I’m going to hazard an approximation of about 20% of people are actually tapping on. Maybe 30% at a stretch.
Surely if they did a Brisbane, and dropped it to 50c or even $1, then most everyone would tap.
There comes a point , when things are affordable rnough, that it’s not worth the risk / anxiety.
At current pricing it’s obviously still worth the risk.
I can only imagine if the 70% or so that are not paying, paid $1, that there’d be more money in the system.
Many people buy the monthly things so they only need to tap once a month to activate it
When an inspector comes in tram you’ll see most if not all people are not in trouble.
