Just taken a trip into our local city centre with the kids. Something I did loads when the kids were small and didn’t need their own ticket. Now they do need their own tickets it’s really expensive - £9 for the three of us. It’s a short journey so we could drive, and parking centrally would be cheaper (even free as we have membership to a gym with parking). I’m happy to use the bus as it’s taking our car off the road for this journey, but it must be very unaffordable for people on low incomes/without vehicular access.
