£2 BUS FARE CAP

Carpool to Save Fuel

From 1 January 2027, every single bus fare in England outside London is capped at £2

On average an employee who commutes by bus five days a week would save around £440 a year against today’s fares and a car commuter who switches saves far more once parking, maintenance and wear are counted.

In the previous bus fare caps it was leisure travellers that received most of the benefit – this time Mobilityways is supporting employers to ensure they and their teams take advantage of this Government support.

We’re proud to have the largest single-site carsharing scheme in the UK and have had a branded scheme for over a decade. Our 8,400 members have reduced single-occupancy car use, saving more than 83.2 million miles over the last 13 years which equates to around 18.7 tonnes of CO2e. It’s a great benefit to offer colleagues across Team Heathrow who have saved over £21.3m in travel costs since the scheme was set up. The platform is tailored to meet our needs and we’re able to incentivise sustainable travel through dedicated car parking bays for sharers.
