Bus Services: Fares
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what assessment he has made of the potential impact of the removal of the £2 cap on fairs on the number of people using buses in (a) Dorset and (b) England.
Answered by Simon Lightwood
The final monitoring and evaluation report into the impact of the £2 bus fare cap, including analysis on bus usage, was published on 12 February, and the Department does not plan to publish any further reports on the £2 fare cap.
Trends in bus usage will continue to be monitored and reported through the Department’s national statistics which are published annually.
