I'm sure I read a while back on an official government document it was pence operators got, been racking my brains thinking where it was


RE: Merseytravel Timetable Changes - T42 PVM - 26/02/2017 13:25

Motor Mayhems number will be more likley, If operators was only given 30-38p then most operators would not accept the passes

I think that is correct too - it does depends on the type of pass I believe but it is nearer the 80p mark.

Would a FOI request be possible to obtain the answer ?

I does not need to be posted more than once in the same feed

The concessionary pass is something like 1/3 of the sale price of a standard fare (Around the 70-80p mark)

I'm not sure about walrus cards at all.

Yes, there was a letter in a local newpaper a few years ago, when a member of the Houlton family (Fairway) wrote that they got only about 70p for concessionary pass journeys, and that made their St. Helens - Southport service uneconomic I assume that the rate will be a bit more than 70p now, as it must be about 6 years since that Southport service last ran.

The price paid only goes up by pennies and thats when and if they go up as thats what as killed a lot of the smaller routes of when companies started to lose there fuel reimbursements from the government as thats what made the difference.
