Our mates are running the campaign to keep fares half price, for everyone, for GOOD! In April 2022 the government halved fares, and that has helped people use public transport more often, creating habits of using cleaner travel instead of private cars.

But in January 2023, the government will END half-price public transport, returning fares to full price for everyone except people with a Community Services Card. Higher fares will force some people to break public transport habits and return to traveling by private car, causing congestion and harmful carbon emissions. Higher fares will force some people to travel less, and their wellbeing and communities will suffer as a result.

The solution is for the government to keep fares half price, for everyone, for GOOD! Extending half-price fares for everyone will:

• Reduce emissions by locking in new public transport habits
• Give more people a chance to switch to affordable public transport
• Reduce hardship in a time of high living costs
• Ensure no one misses out because they have not acquired a Community Services Card.
