    Sure, but even that’s not cost free as you either have staff/equipment verifying IDs to allow entry to platforms. In the case of roadside stops, you’re increasing dwell time to verify IDs, which extends the route time, which means more drivers and vehicles to provide the same service level

      I think that you misunderstood the requirement. You go to town hall and they give you a transit pass; the same pass they use now. There is nobody checking ID on the transport itself.
