Fairbrother's of Warrington

RE: Fairbrother's of Warrington
Doing a bit of detective work but the article suggests pupils are charged a £1 flat fare per journey. The comments with the article suggest Springfields single deckers are not big enough and pupils are forced to stand. So let's say on average 60 pupils per school journey is £60, twice a day, and they operate 3 services to the school so that's £1800 a week. Plus would they receive some kind of concessionary re-inbursment. For a small business that's thier weekly cash flow which probably goes towards drivers wages etc.
I can understand why he's upset but only he could have done something about it.


Smiths of Marple have just put thier school fares up to a flat £1.50 a journey. They offer no weekly or monthly passes it's simply pay £1.50 twice a day or walk. To think I used to pay 36p to get to school and I'm not that old either lol
