RE: Fare Increases
With regards to Merseyrail fare increases, it is important to remember that there are 2 baskets: 1) Fares entirely on Merseyrail services, which can increase by RPI 2) Everything else, which can increase by RPI+3% For example, Port Sunlight to Warrington can increase by 6.2% in January. First Class and Off Peak fares are unregulated and can increase by any amount. Fortunately there are very significant savings to have, sometimes by nearly 100%, by exploiting anomalies... for instance Town Green to Ellesmere Port SDR is £6.65, but a Town Green to Ince & Elton day return (valid via Ellesmere Port) is only £3.50, (which also undercuts Liverpool-Hooton & Ellesmere Port). Anyway, some quick headline fares for January 2013: (Merseyrail generally round up to nearest 10p) Singles are 50p less. Liverpool-Chester SDR now £6.70, becomes £7.00 Liverpool Southport SDR now £6.00, becomes £6.20 All Zone Annual Railpass now £975, becomes £1006.20 All Area Saveaway now £4.70, becomes £4.90 1 Area Saveaway now £3.50, becomes £3.60 Merseyrail Day Saver Northern/Wirral now £4.60, will become £4.80 Merseyrail Day Saver 1 Area now £3.40, will become £3.50 |
