One of the main Conservative Government policies was the £2 bus fare cap which applies to 1,081 routes in the Eastern Region. Along with our £49m public transport investment in Norfolk, bus usage increased by 16%
In just over two years this cap has:
- Made it cheaper for people to commute, helping workers
- Made it cheaper to go into town centres at the weekend, helping businesses.
- Maintained demand on rural routes, helping rural communities and the vulnerable remain connected by public transport.
🥀 Labour have hiked the fare cap to £3 starting from January 1st. Costing working people who commute by bus every day £520 a year more to get to work.
