If fuel prices stay high it could put more pressure on the government to increase public transport, and increase livindensity in selected areas.

It also motivates people to be sparing, or find alternative means of transport that rely on fossil fuels less per person.

Over the long term it could aid in reshaping the state's capital city to be less car centric and maybe more walkable.

Are they? That would make sense that only Freo and Perth have done it then.

But if the state is looking at building more train lines, they should be looking at other forms of public transport to go along with those. And i'd wager there wouldn't be many more LGA's that could afford CATS within their own budgets.

But it could be interesting to leave it as LGA managed then, instead of a central body covering all.

Looks like the blue cat is now cancelled due to the cost, bit sad. I always forget they're free service, thats probably a bit unsustainable no matter where the key sources of funding comes from. https://www.fremantle.wa.gov.au/news-and-media/enhanced-532-bus-service-starts-weekend
