Is that because the orange paint is more expensive then red or blue? And almost 50% more per single ticket. No wonder customers are using private transport more.
If you get on at the Church Road bus stop rather than the Ambulance station, it goes down from £3.10 to £2.30 on the 56. The 57 is different as it's £2.30 all the way from Wardley, yet in my experience, people let both the 57 go past to get the more expensive 56 and 58 where they share the same corridor, despite similar timing. Clearly doesn't effect passenger usage as more people get the 56 and 58, so I don't know why they'd change it?
