Rail fares could soar by 5.8pc next year

The Gazette

|

August 21, 2025

REGULATED train fares in England may increase by 5.8% next year, despite punctuality in Britain at its lowest level since 2020.

The potential rise is based on the Office for National Statistics announcing that Retail Price Index (RPI) inflation rose to 4.8% in July.

The Government has not confirmed how it will determine the cap on regulated fare rises in 2026, but this year’s 4.6% hike was one percentage point above RPI in July 2024.

If that formula is used to set next year’s fare increase, the cost of train travel will jump by 5.8%. That would mean an annual season ticket from Woking to London rising by £247 to £4,507.

A flexi ticket for travel two days per week over a year from Liverpool to Manchester would increase by £120.30 to £2,195.10.
