PLYMOUTH Citybus has stressed it is not unfairly targeting some bus users, as it emerges some fares have risen more than others.
The company has explained why some ticket prices have risen by more than others, by saying it is an attempt to keep fares low for as many passengers as possible.
The bus company hiked fares across the board this month, but some tickets went up by more than others. For example, a one-day Dayrider ticket for Zones One and Two has risen 50p to £5.50, a 10% increase, while a one-week season ticket for Zones One and Two has also gone up by 10%, from £20 to £22.
However, a one-week season ticket for Zone One only, or Zone Two only, has jumped by £3 to £20 - a rise of 17.6%. A four-week season ticket for Zone One only, or Zone Two only, has risen by £12 an 18.1% hike.
