Bus fares changes from Monday 8 February 2010
We last increased our single journey fares in June 2008 and day returns and promotional fares in 2005.
We also maintained our promise not to increase fares during 2009.
With increasing costs, especially for diesel fuel and insurance, we regret our fares must now be increased, but we are retaining some REAL BARGAIN FARES, which we hope will help in these difficult times.

Changes to Beartown Buses timetables from Monday 01 February
Following requests from customers for direct services to the Railway Station, new journeys were introduced in May 2009. Unfortunately, these additional journeys have not seen the level of usage required to continue their operation and it is therefore necessary to withdraw them with effect from Monday 1 February. We would like to thank those who supported these journeys whilst they were operating.
There are also some small changes to last journeys departing from Congleton Fairground bus station each day. As a result, there will be a standard Monday to Saturday timetable.
All
Beartown bus fares will be increasing by 10p from Monday 01 February 2010, because of increasing costs, particularly diesel fuel and insurance.

Since 01 April 2008 senior citizens over 60 years of age, and holders of valid local authority passes, may travel free of charge at all times for journeys commencing in Staffordshire, and after 09:30 for journeys commencing in Cheshire on Mondays to Fridays. Half fare is payable before 09:30 on Mondays to Fridays, and free of charge at all other times. A "bus pass" (obtainable from local councils) must be shown to the driver on each occasion and a special ticket will be issued for each journey. These passes are also now valid for free travel anywhere in England after 09:30, but special local conditions may apply at other times. Please contact the local authority concerned for full details.
