BUS fares for children are going up by 10p next weekend as transport bosses grapple budget cuts of more than £8m.
Single child concession bus and tram fares in South Yorkshire will increase from 70p to 80p from next Sunday, September 18.
South Yorkshire Passenger Transport Executive said young passengers can still make use of value-for-money child and student tickets from bus and tram operators, including weekly tickets that offer ‘unlimited travel across South Yorkshire from 72p per day’.
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
