BAD news for bus passengers!
National Express West Midlands, which runs some of the busiest services through North Solihull, has confirmed another increase in ticket prices in 2016.
From January 1, a single adult ticket will rise 10p to £2.30, while the cost of a Daysaver will jump to £4.40 (up 20p).
The cost of weekly and monthly travelcards will also be going up from next month.
Many travellers were quick to criticise today's news on social media, but National Express defended the latest hikes, arguing that the cost of an off-peak Daysaver would actually be reduced.
"We will also be investing tens of millions next year in new services," said managing director Peter Coates.
Some of the operator's busiest services through North Solihull include the Nos 71, 94 and 966.
