Forthcoming Fare Changes
Changes from March 31st 2024
Following a review of our fares, we will be freezing the majority of our tickets.
From March 31st 2024, changes will come into effect to some of our fares. However, we have worked to ensure that these increases remain below cost price inflation.
For customers purchasing tickets through the innovative Tap On Tap Off payment method ticket prices will remain at current rates, including Single and Day tickets. This means that those using the contactless method on board only pay for the specific journey as fares are capped at the cheapest option for the route.
On-board, or First Bus App Two-Trip, Day Ticket Bundles, Week and First4Week tickets will all also remain the same price while Single, Day and First12Week+ tickets will see a below cost price inflation increase by 3% from 31st March.
This means that those who typically purchase Single and Day tickets can switch to Tap On Tap Off as their payment method, and will therefore not see an increase in the ticket price.
The announcement comes as we continues to invest in our customers and services; adding more buses onto the road to meet demand, improving punctuality, and increasing the number of zero emission electric buses in our fleet.
