<p>Is there a good database comparing the cost of public transport? I found <a href="https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/cost-of-public-transportation-around-the-world.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">this one</a> and <a href="https://www.priceoftravel.com/595/public-transportation-prices-in-80-worldwide-cities/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">this one</a> but they cite no sources so have no idea how they were constructed. Also, it is for a given period. Ideally the database should have more years. I've searched in OECD and world bank without success. Help please! :)</p>
