Ah yes, but if the cost is incorporated into rates then only those places that receive the benefits would have the changes. If a council region wanted additional services then they could expand at the violition of that council.
Basically it would mean that regions that wanted public transport could get it and those that didn't would not.
Consumers of public transport largely pay a fair price
