The Government has extended half-price public transport fares until 2023 – excellent news for many who use it for regular commutes and other trips. Auckland is frequently cited as one of the world’s most expensive cities for public transportation fares.

This is because of the growing distance between people’s homes and points of public transit as our suburbs expand, making it harder to get to the train station or bus stop efficiently.
