They may have been announced in the autumn but they were definitely introduced some time later - in January 07 in fact. <BR/><BR/>Phil Taylor states:<BR/>'Last year off peak fares went from 80p to £1. They will go back down to 90p so they will still be 12.5%higher than they were a year before.'<BR/><BR/>But peak fares last year were £1 so peak fares are being cut by ten per cent. As more people travel in the peak, this is a highly significant cut Phil.<BR/><BR/>And at the same time a weekly bus pass is being by a quid. <BR/><BR/>Funnily enough Phil Taylor forgot to mention that.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33236386.post-18136335289451336412007-07-26T17:34:00.000+01:002007-07-26T17:34:00.000+01:00Roger,Last year's massive fare increases were anno...Roger,<BR/><BR/>Last year's massive fare increases were announced on 11th September only days before they came into force. <BR/><BR/>This year's partial cut, which merely only partially undoes recent rises, was announced on 18th June. <BR/><BR/>Last year off peak fares went from 80p to £1.
