I know public transportation is not about profit but to get your city moving. So yes it is expensive but the purpose isn t to make money. I m starting up now and trying it myself.
Created aug 14 2014. But i saw in some videos that people are making positive profit from it and i never got it. Build bus stations in key parts of your city like near the central train station airport and so on.
Build a metro station nearby it should be connected to some line that incorporates stations in residential and commercial districts near the port airport university park or any monument. Most of the transport types will lose money only metro has a chance of staying even or making some money. I d like to ask for some help.
