From Sunday 31st August, Southern Vectis will introduce a number of fare increases across its services.
The changes will affect period passes and Rover Tickets, while single fares will remain fixed at £3. This is due to the Government scheme which continues to cap single bus journeys at that price until further notice.
Multi-day, Freedom and Rover Tickets
Adjustments will be made to the price of Multi-day, Freedom and Rover Tickets.
Southern Vectis advises passengers to check the full list of changes before travelling.
