Three years in a row, Myki's ticket price rise symbolizes a surge in Melbourne prices.
You want a good year?
The cost of living doesn't make you happy.
2.2 percent, 4.7 percent and 3.9 percent.
These figures are 19, 18 and 17 years of Myki price increases.
As you can see, the 19-year New year price surge is not as strong as it has been in the past two years.
And the actual fare, take Daily Fare for example:
It will rise from $8.60 this year to $8.80.
It is expected that the 2020 New year will properly break through $9.00!
The new traffic minster Melissa Horne, the top figure, said the government's efforts to curb the rise in ticket prices have also been a big effort.
After all, inflation this year is 2.5%, so the 2.2% increase seems reasonable to the government, and even a good result.
But rising prices is not always good news for ordinary people.
After all, Melbourne's two-hour fare has reached $4.40 starting next year.
This not only makes Melbourne's short-haul travel expensive, but also makes people more inclined to drive out the door. After all, many people cost about $100 a month for refueling.
Tuition fees go up, tickets go up, rent goes up, electricity and gas costs go up.
The only thing that may not keep up with the increase is wages.
