Net transactions are the only ones that matter. Saying that the suburbs are paying for the bridge (in any capacity) is like saying that Tim's is paying you to take their coffee when they give you your change.

Another way to look at it is if the inner city is generating more revenue than what is being spent on it (and it is, and then some), then it's not taking money from anywhere else. That wouldn't add up. (Oh noes! I've uncovered massive corruption!)
