RE: Arriva put Prices up again
I had a feeling it was going to happen this year - but considering the high amount of investment in the fleet over the past few years (which has seen a lot of depots have other fleets heavily updated) I do think a small price rise is perfectly reasonable. Having just the North West and Wales day ticket instead of having that and a standard North West day ticket is a good idea though - as is the Wirral Plus being replaced by a Merseyside ticket which gives Wirral based bus users more freedom to travel around Liverpool on the same ticket |

Unfortunately in their infinite wisdom arriva scrapped the macc area day savers which is annoying as a load of people bought them & £5.50 is a bit of s rip-off if your only travelling around town. |

North West & Wales Day ticket increases from £5.50 to £5.80 but new North West only day ticket will be sold which will cost £5.50, meaning only those who currently travel across the Welsh border will have to pay the 30p extra. |

RE: Arriva put Prices up again
Oh dear, not good news for people travelling into Wales. I never once managed to get a driver to give me the North West and Wales day ticket in the past when there used to be a separate, slightly cheaper North West ticket, as they either can't find it on their machine or absolutely refuse to believe someone would travel to Wales for the day on a bus and think they're being helpful by giving you the cheaper one. Always ended up having to pay twice for the separate day tickets. |
