    Last year saw a significant increase in fare dodging fines issued on our trains

    In a bid to crack down on fare dodging, tough new fines have been implemented at ticket gates across the city. And it seems the measures are working, as figures reveal a significant decrease in the number of passengers trying to avoid paying their way.

    The new fines, which were introduced last month, have been hailed as a success by transport officials. They have seen a 30% drop in fare evasion incidents, with fewer passengers attempting to sneak through ticket gates without a valid ticket.

    One customer, who was caught trying to dodge the fare, shared their experience with reporters. “I thought I could get away with it, but the new fines are no joke,” they said. “I won’t be trying that again.”

    Transport authorities are pleased with the results so far and are hopeful that the trend will continue. “We take fare evasion very seriously, and these new fines are sending a clear message that it will not be tolerated,” said a spokesperson for the transport agency.

    Passengers are reminded to always have a valid ticket when traveling to avoid facing hefty fines. The crackdown on fare dodging is expected to continue in the coming months, ensuring a fair and safe travel experience for all passengers.
