Bus Fares to Drop Nationwide | Manchester News

Bus fares across England are set to drop to just $2 per journey starting January 2027, following a popular cap in Greater Manchester. Backed by a $400 million government boost, the move aims to slash transport costs and boost accessibility for millions. It follows a historic rail fare freeze saving $600 million and a $100 million fund for free school bus rides. Officials also plan to empower local mayors with more control over transport planning to better serve communities — all part of a broader push to connect people to opportunity and ease the cost of living.
