Report by Executive Director – Customer Services

The Council sets a maximum fare which applies on local bus services operated on the Council’s behalf.  The scale had last been revised with effect from July 2010 and the Council considered a report containing a revised maximum permitted farescale for local bus services with a view to keeping pace with inflation and also to permit the Councils contractors to maximise their income in the hope of avoiding large cost increases or reduced services in further tender rounds.

Decision

The Council approved the revised maximum farescale as detailed at Appendix 1 to the report by the Executive Director.
