RE: Pricing - BusLoverMum - 11 Mar 2023
Wow. That is a full 11% for the explorer and almost 17% for the day rover (my mental arithmetic may be out)

You are spot on with your figures, they really want to screw North Tyneside don't they.
RE: Pricing - omnicity4659 - 04 Apr 2023
On the GNE app, would it be possible for the developers to change the colour of the header of multi-operator tickets, so they can be quickly identified?
With the amount of people boarding Stagecoach buses thinking they can just flash a "Tyne & Wear" or "All Zones" ticket, instead of Network One/Day Rover, a description saying "valid on Go North East buses only" would be helpful for us to point at to show them we're not lying...

RE: Pricing - NEbushopper - 02 May 2023
When is this £6.80 Berwick - Barnard day ticket coming out? Will it be this summer?
RE: Pricing - Unber43 - 02 May 2023
I think its this month
RE: Pricing - busmanT - 02 May 2023

This is from https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-tyne-65036266 article "Cheaper fares for young people will be rolled out from spring while adult tickets are expected later this year.".
Also is the Under 22 Day Ticket the same thing as the £6.80 just cheaper for younger people?
RE: Pricing - N1cholas - 02 May 2023
The under 22 £1 single starts this Sunday 7th may
RE: Pricing - streetdeckfan - 02 May 2023
Have the zone boundaries been published yet?
Presumably it's the county boundaries with no wiggle room for sanity checks?
RE: Pricing - Unber43 - 02 May 2023
Any news on weekly tickets?

RE: Pricing - busmanT - 02 May 2023
(02 May 2023, 6:45 pm)streetdeckfan Have the zone boundaries been published yet?The £1.00 21 and under single fare is only valid for journeys wholly within the TNE area - ie Durham. Northumberland, Gateshead, Sunderland, Newcastle, South Tyneside, North Tyneside.
