Tickets prices will go up from Sunday
Initially, train prices would have increased based on July's retail price index which stood at 12.3 per cent in 2022. However prices will now not be going up by that much due to intervention from the government.
When announcing the cap, Transport Secretary Mark Harper said: "This is the biggest-ever Government intervention in rail fares. I’m capping the rise well below inflation to help reduce the impact on passengers.“It has been a difficult year and the impact of inflation is being felt across the UK economy. We do not want to add to the problem.
The DfT confirmed that the cap will only be implemented "for this year only". Despite the limit on train fare increases, the move is still being criticised.
