Bus fare increases

I was disturbed to read in the paper the other day that the Metro plan to increase bus fares yet again. I have had to dig out the spreadsheet I created a few years ago work out the most cost effective way to get home.

As I just past the end of a section it was cheaper to get off the bus one stop early and walk the extra 500 metres to save 10c. With the changes you can now save 20c by walking the last two kilometres. I am sure the wife and kids won't mind this.
