The £3 single fare cap introduced by the government has been extended to 31 March 2027 meaning no single bus fare on any timetabled Cuckmere Bus route will exceed £3. This is a welcome extension of support particularly in rural communities where there is heavy reliance on our buses. Without a cap, some passengers would face a steep hike in fares following three years of government help.
