Bingo.
If OC-Transpo riders can freely transfer to the MOOSE system, it would not make a lot of sense that MOOSE passengers would need to pay more to get onto OC-Transpo's services.
Is there any reason to expect a high number of transfers in one or the other direction?
None of us will know the net effects on OC-Transpo & STO revenues and overall ridership until we complete some collaborative modeling. It's a genuinely complex system. Our sense is that the benefits of the network effect for OC-Transpo in pursuit of its mandate will outweigh any negative factors from whole-region rail integration of the type we're describing.
