Revised Fares From 1st September 2026

From Tuesday 1st September 2026, there will be some changes to fares across our  local bus network.

The changes coincide with the end of the free child summer fare promotion, which has helped families enjoy free bus travel throughout the summer holidays.

Single Fares Remain Great Value

We are pleased to confirm that we will continue to participate in the Government’s £3 single bus fare cap, meaning adult single journeys on our *eligible local bus services will continue to cost no more than £3.

The Lincolnshire County Council Town Single Fare will also continue, with single fares for journeys within Louth, Mablethorpe, Boston and Spalding capped at just £1.50.
