The Government’s Spending Review in July 2025 announced that the £3 fare cap will be in place until at least March 2027.

This provides bus users in Leicestershire with affordable travel no matter the distance that they travel. The cap means no single bus fare on routes included in the scheme will exceed £3. Routes where fares are less than £3 will only be allowed to increase by inflation in the normal way so that some fares will remain below £3. The fare cap will help millions access better opportunities and promote greater use by passengers.
