Government to Restore £2 Cap on Bus Fares in England The UK government has announced plans to reinstate a £2 cap on bus fares in England, effective from January 2027.
The policy aims to provide relief for passengers, particularly those in rural and coastal areas where single fares can be prohibitively expensive.
Critics of the original scheme, which applied outside of London on a voluntary basis, argue that it was a short term solution to a long term problem.
