Key changes:
• From 1st January, the maximum single fare will be £3, but many shorter journeys will cost less.
• Adult singles will be priced between £1.80 and £3.00, and young person’s singles between £1.40 and £3.00.
• 42% of fares in Norfolk and Suffolk will cost less than £3.00.
• Fare changes are limited to singles, day tickets and 10-Trip tickets only, all other period tickets will remain at current prices.
• The Norfolk County Council BSIP funded £1.50 fare cap will remain in place in Great Yarmouth and King’s Lynn, and the 25% discount on group, weekly and monthly tickets will remain in place across Norfolk.
• The £2.00 fare cap will be held in Cambridgeshire and Peterborough (for Excel customers).
