Bus fares for single, essential journeys under 2.5 miles in GM have gone up more than three times inflation since De-reg. From the comment above about a £1.45 going to £1.50, I assume the same doesn't apply in the North East - despite my health problems, even I wouldn't catch a bus for less than half a mile.
I wonder if it's an average.
I haven't used my 'beloved' 20 for a while now and since the recent changes to fares, I'm not sure I want to find out how much it has gone up!
I think it was in this thread (it may have been another), where I worked out the percentage increase over the last few years.
To read on here that it has gone up again, may require me dig out a calculator again!
