How much did fares get raised on Trax and Frontrunner? Just interested because we are fuming over Honolulu's decision to build a heavy rail commuter train that has been so mismanaged its actually going to END 5 miles short of this intended terminus, just at the beginning of the worst part of the commute into downtown Honolulu. So far its cost us $6.8 billion (not a typo) to build 15 miles of elevated rail line.... with no consideration given how to come up with the $100 million its going to take EVERY YEAR to operate and maintain the line.....
