Stagecoach increase fares from 8 May

Stgecoach has emailed with this information

On Sunday 8th May 2022 we are going to be revising our bus fares across the network. These changes reflect the rising costs of running services since. Since 2019 costs across the bus industry have risen by about 12%. The new ticket prices will add on average 4.9% onto single and multi-journey tickets which is still below the annual rate of inflation (CPI) of 8.2%. We will also be raising the prices on our DayRider, Flexi-5 and our MegaRider tickets - these are outlined below. . .

Traveline Scotland provides information about all Stagecoach Highland services and all Scottish bus operators.  Unfortunately most people will find the Traveline timetables difficult to read because of the small size of the type.  Stagecoach timetables are better.
