Updates to day/family ticket bus fares from 29th April

29/04/2024

East Sussex County Council are having to increase the cost of some bus tickets from Monday 29th April.

The £2 single fare cap remains in place.

They have stated.......I am sorry not to have given more notice but this was only confirmed today.

We have had to push these through far quicker than we would have liked as to coincide with fare increases coming into effect from Monday 29th April for Brighton & Hove bus services. B&H Buses are of course one of our key partners on the Bus Service Improvement Plan (BSIP). Fares remain much lower than they were pre-BSIP and these will help operators who rely on fares income to deliver the service improvements we currently have

The changes are to multi-operator day tickets and the accompanied Under 19s
