Meanwhile #Bornholm's bus company, BAT, hoping to attract more passengers, wants to collapse the island's five fare zones into one (it will need the municipality to approve the tariff change, however, it seems). Similar in some ways to the #Helsinki-area #HSL proposal that was (sadly) ultimately killed, though more extreme (if I recall correctly) in terms of actual price changes, the plan envisions a single-trip ticket price of 29 DKK, a 70% increase over the current single-zone ticket of 17 DKK (and, frankly, crazy expensive in terms of travelling around town for my Polish sensibilities) - however, tickets for journeys that cross multiple zones today would all get cheaper, with the price of a cross-island journey dropping by two thirds from 85 DKK.
The move could be a trial for expert recommendations to trim down Denmark's farezone jungle to just seven zones (presumably mostly corresponding to the regions except with Bornholm and Funen separated from the more mainlandish bits of their regions?)
