Bus Fares Back to Two Pounds | Belfast News

from Belfast News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

The £2 bus fare cap is roaring back across England, bringing relief to millions as single tickets are once again capped at just two pounds — a move reversing the earlier three-pound limit. Funded by a shift toward repayable loans for climate projects and £54 million in savings from the Energy Security and Net Zero budget, the policy aims to ease the cost of living crisis by making essential travel affordable. But with bus operators warning of long-term sustainability concerns, the government faces pressure to deliver a clear, lasting strategy. Meanwhile, the new Prime Minister is busy reshuffling his cabinet, confirming key appointments as he charts the course for his administration.
