THE NEW FARES
In recent years the Passenger Transport Executive has moved towards a uniform scale of fares for the whole of Tyne and Wear County. In this revision this process is completed, thus removing the anomaly whereby journeys of a similar length cost different amounts in different areas of the county. In some cases the more expensive fares are reduced or remain unchanged.
Now there's progression towards a simplified fare structure which a certain multi-coloured bus company could learn from.
