The bus industry is stuck in the past when it comes to payment methods. The developed world has long since moved on from cash payments, yet we still seem to insist on it on the buses. Faire enough, I can buy a day m-Ticket from Arriva or GNE, but there's nothing in place if I only want to make a single or return journey. We should have had a smart card capable (and in service!) of storing credit 10 years ago.
