Spanish term or phrase: ayuda de ciudad
Se trata de otro de los pagos adicionales al salario que pueden recibir los trabajadores. Lo he visto como ayuda de ciudad, ayuda temporal de ciudad y me imagino que lo pagan cuando el trabajador se tiene que transportar de una ciudad a otra para llegar a su sitio de trabajo (no necesariamente mudarse). Aparece como uno de los renglones pagados a un trabajador:

18.2 Disturbance Allowance

18.2.1 Where the household effects of an employee who has been promoted, moved to another location (not within the same city or town), or temporarily relocated for a period of 12 months or more have been removed at Departmental expense from the employee's former locality to the new locality, the employee is entitled to be paid a flat rate of Disturbance Allowance of $600.00 for an employee who relocates alone and $1200.00 for an employee who relocates with a spouse, partner or dependant.

18.2.2 Disturbance Allowance is a one-off payment to offset the following:

* connection or reconnection of a telephone service at the new locality;
* stamp duty and any establishment fee payable on registration of the employee's motor vehicle at the new locality;
* any establishment fee payable for transfer of the employee's driver’s licence;
* connection of public utilities; and
* other non-reimbursable costs.

18.2.3 Where an employee has received Disturbance Allowance at the new locality, and subsequently relocates within the new locality, no further Disturbance Allowance is payable.

Allowances for Officers Posted Outside Hong Kong

19. As at 1 April 1999, there were a total of 85 officers posted to places outside Hong Kong. They have to uproot their family, relocate to the city of posting and are subject to costs incurred in representing the Hong Kong Special Administrative Government. They are eligible for receiving Disturbance Grant and Special Posting Allowance to cover the additional costs incurred.

20. They will also be granted a Rent Allowance to cover the cost of accommodation, and Leave Passage Allowance to allow them to renew family ties in Hong Kong. Baggage Allowances are payable to cover the cost of transporting their households from Hong Kong to the places of posting. Their losses in salary arising from the fluctuation of the exchange rates between Hong Kong dollars and the local currencies at their places of posting may be compensate by Exchange Compensation Allowance.

Proposed Special Posting Allowance Mechanism
3. The SPA is to compensate officers for the inconvenience due to posting
outside Hong Kong and the extra cost of living in the city of posting. Under the present
SPA mechanism, the SPA rates for various offices outside Hong Kong are determined by
'marker rates'3, rank and family size of the officers. Such 'marker rates', however, do not
specify the proportion in compensating officers for the inconvenience and the extra cost
of living. In the absence of a specific formula for determining SPA rates, whenever new
offices were established outside Hong Kong, reference had to be made to the SPA of an
existing ETO, the cost of living of which was considered to be broadly comparable to the
new office. For instance, for lack of a better yardstick, the SPA rates for the Sydney ETO
were determined in 1995 based on the SPA rates of the Washington and San Francisco
ETOs. This is not satisfactory.

City Travel Allowance or Per Diem


Explanation:
If the city is paying for it, I would use "City Travel Allowance", since the city is the source of payment, but if it's a general expense paid from another source, "per diem" could be used....

commuter allowance


Explanation:
Just another possibility. Using commuter rather than travel identifies that it is just referring to travel to and from work.

transport compensation


Explanation:
It coud be called 'transport compensation' as well. It depends upon when & on what basis the money is given. No objections against 'allowance'.
Or something like '(targeted) transport compensation (payment)'.
