French city of Montpellier makes public transport free for all residents
Visitors and tourists will still have to pay 1.60 euro per trip as southern French city becomes latest in Europe to make bus and tram rides free for locals

€1.60 isn't even bad for a train/bus ticket price. Visitors could probably afford €5 per trip.
I guess different parts of the world have different standards haha, my blood was rising when the price for a tram/bus ticket in Bordeaux went above 1,50€
Imagine paying 4€ in Oslo. I know that Norway has high cost of living but it seems high. Though the price decrease based on the numbers of tickets you buy through the month.
Do you pay for multiple tickets in advance, or is the "discount" applied retroactively, or is it a subscription?
When you use the app, you get a discount after your first ticket. It is like 4% for the second, 7% for the third and so on.
That's fair, I'd need to pay at least €500 to get my ass in France from Canada to begin with, which is why €5 isn't a problem for me. Locally my transit ranges from the equivalent of €1,75 to €4,25 a trip and sure I'd be disappointed if fares went up.
And is 10€ for 10 travels with 1 years use limit, so most people pay 1€.
