Bus fare cap in Peterborough rises to £2.50

Previously, the cap was £2 but as of the month of July, this has risen to £2.50.

This fare cap will be in effect across Cambridgeshire and Peterborough.

After the Government increased national fare cap to £3 from January 1, 2025, the Combined Authority kept fares capped at £2 in Cambridgeshire and Peterborough until the end of June.

The authority has now made the decision to up this to £2.50.

The estimated cost to keep the fares at £2 between December and March 2025 was £3million.
