A 1-hour single ticket on #Oslo public transport now costs 40 NOK. That’s £3.20/$3.85. Not so bad if you are travelling across the city, but prohibitive for short bus or tram journeys.#Ruter should really introduce a single-leg short journey ticket for say 20 NOK. I’m all for an integrated #publicTransport system, but it has to be affordable. #LifeInNorway

Long term, they should consider moving to a pay-as-you-go system like the London #OysterCard where you swipe in and out on each leg of your journey and the system gives you the best overall price.But that requires a lot of expensive infrastructure, and most residents have season tickets anyway, so there’s something to to be said for the simplicity of a flat-rate system—particularly if the rate were zero.
