WILLOUGHBY PUBLIC TRANSPORT FARES TO RISE BY UP TO $104 A YEAR
O'FARRELL'S SLAP IN THE FACE FOR LOCAL COMMUTERS

Penny Sharpe, duty MLC for Willoughby and NSW Shadow Minister for Transport, has slammed the O'Farrell Government's decision to increase public transport fares for commuters travelling from Willoughby to the city by public transport by up to $104 a year.
"The O'Farrell Government's decision to increase public transport fares is a slap in the face for local commuters," Ms Sharpe said.

"Under these price hikes, the average local worker travelling from Chatswood to the city by train will be forced to fork out an extra $104 each year.
