Not impressed with this rise in bus fare cap from £2 to £3. That’s a 50% increase in all fares, basically, because it’s almost impossible to get a trip that’s short enough to cost less than £2 now.
It’s not a cap, it’s a flat rate as implemented by the bus companies, and it’s about to become a lot more expensive for those who rely on them
