Fare revisions on Country services
In advance of September 2023 period products on our country services will be changing. The following services will also see a change to the on bus fares:
- 603 Shotley to Holbrook Academy (new service)
- 604 Shotley to Holbrook Academy

The changes to ‘on the day’ fares & period passes available for use on these services are being made in response to the rising cost of operation.
The price of most of the period passes has been frozen since September 2019. Since this date, we have seen a continued increase in the costs of items such as fuel, utilities, parts and labour.
All of our period tickets continue to provide great value to customers, with each ticket providing unlimited access to our entire network of services for its period of validity. This includes weekends and school holidays.
Our period passes will be available at the following prices:
