New fares from 7 September 2025

Our single fares for shorter journeys are increasing from Sunday 7th September 2025.

Adult single fares in the Bath, Bristol and Weston-super-Mare fare zones, and single fares in the West of England Zone for journeys up to 6 miles, will increase by 10p to £2.50.

The corresponding fares for students and those aged 16-21 will increase by 9p from £2.16 to £2.25.

All other fares are unchanged, including child single fares, which remain at £1 across all services.

We’re continuing to invest in our buses, with 98 zero-emission electric buses giving a smooth, clean ride to more than 250,000 passengers every week – with another 160 electric buses coming in the next 18 months. We’re also expanding our network of services, with new routes and more departures having been added in the spring and more to come from next week in our autumn/winter timetables, details of which can be found here.

Not sure which zones you'll be travelling in? Take a look at our Fare Zone Maps.

The cost of a child single ticket will remain at £1 for travel anywhere in the West of England region, and the cost of our single town fares for adults in Clevedon, Nailsea, Portishead, Thornbury, Yate and Frome will remain at £1.80.

We are also making changes to day and season ticket prices, and to adult, student, young person and child fares. Please check out our fares guide for details of what is changing.

Also, don’t forget our Tap On, Tap Off readers are the best and quickest way to pay for your bus travel. Over half of our customers use it, and that number continues to grow. It’s really simple – you just tap the same bank card or device on an on-board payment reader when you get on and off the bus, and we’ll do the calculation for you, ensuring you get the best value fare each time you travel – including a cap on your daily and weekly costs. It really is the quickest and most cost-effective way to travel.
