A new scheme is giving people the opportunity this winter to pay less to travel by bus in West Sussex – and the whole of England.
From now until March 31, a single bus journey will cost no more than £2 on most routes under the Department for Transport's Help for Households funded Bus Fare Cap.
Buses Minister Richard Holden said:
“Bus travel remains the most popular form of public transport in England, making up around half of all journeys.
"That’s why we’re investing £60million to cap single bus fares at £2 to support every passenger and help get people back on the bus.
“With the scheme set to take two million car journeys off the road, it’s fantastic to see so many bus operators signing up to the fare cap, helping people to ‘Get Around for £2.’"
Weblinks to the main participating bus operators in West Sussex are listed below:
Brighton & Hove
Compass Travel
Metrobus
Southdown Buses
Stagecoach
The full list of participating bus companies is available on the Gov.UK website.
There are no changes to the national bus pass scheme for older and disabled people. Free bus pass holders will continue to receive free travel under the terms of that scheme.
