All aboard!
Residents across Lancashire and Cumbria can now enjoy £2 bus fairs on lots of different routes across the country.
Across the UK bus operators, including Stagecoach, will off single tickets for £2 until the end of March, the Department for Transport said. .It is hoped the cap will help passengers travelling for education, work and medical appointments amid the cost-of-living crisis. Journeys with some of the biggest savings include between Leeds and Scarborough , Lancaster and Kendal , and Plymouth and Exeter .
