The maximum fare in Glasgow zone is £2-40 and this includes East Kilbride and Clydebank so you can go a fair distance for £2-40. This is value for money IMO considering it costs £4-20 to from EK to Hamilton on the 201.
Again Ill do what i’ve alway done, compare the west to the east.
Mr & Mrs Madder & White can go from Muckelburgh to Dumpstone on a 30 for £1.70, both muckelburgh and dumpstone are regions which isnt exploited by tourism and is simply residential, now that is value for money.
Be that whats said, the most who go few stops are those who are old(concession card holders) or disable person(concession card holder).
I personally understand that £2 is costing too much for a single(similarly how I feel that Eddie’s £1.70 fare is starting to look that way).
Theres absolutely no plausible reason this could not work in glasgow.
Simple, Easy and Manageable.
After all what was the Moto, “SimpliCity”...
More recently I rekindled my thought on this through many asking on Twit-ter how much a particular fare would be but the cronies down in england don’t particularly know.
Ps I can purely see why many wouldnt pay £4.20, EK to Hamilton when my 30mpg car doesn’t even cost that much.
