(30 Mar 2014, 9:24 am)Dan Quite notably, the standard Teen Card fare from Arriva rose from 90p to £1.00 last Sunday. Go North East's 90p fare has been frozen at this price - and has done for over a year now.
Whaa?! I've never seen anything about it; I have a Northumberland one (north and west of the Tyne) - I do believe there is a south-of-the-Tyne one too?

I've been on the lookout for notices on board Arriva buses for it, but I've still not seen anything about it other than on the website...

Yeah, on both. There was posters on the 52/X10 on Saturday.

Well that's a bit crap! Yeah it's only 10p but why the hell did they not put any sort of notice up on the 685 (or other routes which Dan has been looking out for)?!

Normally it is a case of me giving the driver a £1 coin but if I only have 90p in loose change, I'm snookered!

I've been on the lookout for it on my fave service.. the 23 (and occasionally the 24)! Tongue

Didn't spot anything when I was on the Quorum Express over the weekend either, but I was in a bit of a huff when it turned up about 20 minutes late...

Not seen any notices on ours either, mind I don't think (unless I've not noticed it!) we've even had a staff notice...
The teen cards are all one now though, valid across the region, and obviously the fares are capped at £1, there are several below that

Most single fares will increase by 5p, yes. The majority of fares already at £ x.x0 will remain at that price though.

From the 12th April, Go North East and Alba Travel will be operating the AD122. Go North East will be operating it from Hexham to Waltown, while Alba Travel will be operating it from Hexham to Carlisle/Penrith. Glad to see the AD122 in operation this year, wonder what GNE will use on it?

They could use 524, as that is parked up in riverside but could transfer to Hexham
