Village Notice Board
Update to Fare Cap for Buses
£3 Bus Fare Cap
Single bus fares will be capped at £3 for 2025, replacing the £2 cap which ends on 31 December 2024.
This is a welcome extension of support particularly in rural communities where there is heavy reliance on buses.
Without a cap, some passengers would face a steep hike in fares following two years of government help.
