Canberra - Late night bus proves expensive per passenger

Canberra's Nightrider late-night bus service trial for three months last summer failed to quell alcohol fuelled violence in downtown Canberra and proved an expensive service per passenger carried according to a report from Territorial and Municipal Services.

Noted; The Canberra Times assumes all passengers to be "drunks"! Also the news report does not make it clear why a late night bus service in itself would have any effect on the level of violence, a rather large ask of any transport system!
