Victoria Labor pledges $30 weekly transit fare cap if re-elected

Victorian Premier Ben Carroll announced a $30 weekly public transport fare cap starting 1 January if Labor wins the November election, replacing half-price fares introduced after the US-Iran fuel crisis. The Greens push for free travel, making transit fares a key election issue. The policy signals cost-of-living relief but its fiscal impact and implementation remain uncertain.
