Bus fares across Bristol, Bath and the West of England are changing - with a £2 flat fare for a single journey introduced for the first time. The West of England metro mayor announced the changes today (September 20) and they will be brought in from this coming Sunday (September 25).
But while the price of single fares and returns are being cut, the cost of a day ticket is going up - and it’s also the end for the cheap ‘three-stop-hop’ ticket. The changes mean that all single adult tickets in Bristol and Bath will be reduced to £2 - they are £2.20 right now - and returns will be cut from £4 to £3.50.
But the price of a day rider will jump from £5.30 to £6 in Bristol, and from £5 in Bath to £5.60. Child fares are also being cut to just £1 for a single.
