The real cost of public transit
Editor,
Re: “TransLink finding less gas tax to guzzle”
Perhaps some objective/impartial body should question the sustainability of having a public transportation system TransLink has been putting in place.
With users paying only 50 per cent of the true costs and currently the average household paying a subsidy of some $1,000 per year (via the various taxes, fees, levies) a further doubling of transit use would seem problematic.
