It's a little less in my area, since the place is so small. Gets more expensive if you travel to the outer island though.

A lot? My parents pay £5, which is about €7.20 to travel 6 miles. It's only one bus company.

How far away do you live from Moscow? To me it sounds like great value.

My grandparents have to pay about 3 quid or so to get on a little bus that only takes them to the nearest Tesco superstore, which is a very short while from where I am.

and statistically it's better to travel without a ticket cos the fine is only 5 euro ( :lol: ) and the guys who check if u have a ticket only come like once in 10 bus trips i take usually.

The bus company would go bankrupt. Really though, I can't see how they'd manage petrol costs and drivers' wages.

In the UK, bus drivers get paid around £5.86 for each hour. That'd be around €8.10 if things correspond in Russia.
