The £ 2 cap on bus fares will be extended by three months, the Department for Transport (DfT) has announced.
The promotion – launched at the start of the year – was due to expire at the end of March but will now run until June 30.
Prime Minister Rishi Sunak said he wants bus travel to be “affordable for all”. A three-month extension to funding introduced at the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic to keep bus services running despite the drop in demand was also confirmed by the DfT.
