Travel by bus this winter – for just £2 or less

WILTSHIRE bus users can now travel on most routes in the county for just £2 or less for a single fare until Friday 31st March. 

The fare price reduction has been funded by the government and is aimed at getting more people to use buses across the country during the current cost of living challenges. 

As part of the promotion, many single bus fares in Wiltshire have been capped at just £2 for both adults and concessions. If the single fare was originally less than £2, it will remain at the reduced price, and many day return tickets have also been reduced. 

Cllr Dr Mark McClelland cabinet member for transport said, “This is a fantastic initiative to get more people using Wiltshire’s buses, as the £2 single fare cap offers an affordable and easy way to get around the county. 

“If more people choose to leave their car at home and take the bus, it will help to maintain bus routes in Wiltshire, as well as reducing congestion and carbon emissions, and improving air quality. 

“As we have set out in our business plan, we want to have vibrant, well-connected communities here in Wiltshire, and buses are a key part of that.  

“Most bus services in Wiltshire are included in this great value offer, so I’d urge people to save money and explore Wiltshire by bus this year.”  

Most normal bus services are included in the promotion, including services operated in Wiltshire.
