This could become a positive externality of high fuel prices? (www.abc.net.au)

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.

What do people think?

Freo's is funded partially by their LG, Perth's is funded by parking revenue.

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
