Most bus fares in England to be capped at £2 from January

While a lower fare cap is welcome, the Campaign for Better Transport said rural areas were still suffering from a lack of bus routes and services, adding that such areas had been more affected by council cut backs in the last decade than urban zones.

The bus fare cap in England will revert to £2 from January, new prime minister Andy Burnham has announced.

The government says the policy, which is expected to cost more than £500m, will "help with the cost of living and give people the breathing space they need".
