Get Around for £2
This is an archive article from 5 January 2023
Millions of people can access affordable bus travel this winter, thanks to the Government’s fare cap encouraging passengers to ‘Get Around for £2’.
From 1 January to 31 March a single bus journey will cost no more than £2 on most routes across
England.
The Government's fare cap is an extension to the price freeze South Yorkshire residents have benefitted from since the Mayor's Fare was introduced in November.
And as part of Mayor Oliver Coppard’s bold plans to combat the cost-of-living crisis in South Yorkshire the £2 fare cap will continue to apply to tram fares until the end of March 2023, funded by South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority (SYMCA).
