Several readers have complained about the recent price rises on park and ride. However, at £2, the new fare is considerably lower than regular bus services.
The message it is still giving people is that it is cheaper to jump in your car and use park and ride and abandon your local bus and train services.
Although bus fares are due to drop for outlying areas next year, this is only an experiment. It will probably be successful for those areas but for many closer in this represents a doubling of the centre fare in not all that many years.
If the buses really want to be like the tube then they should split Brighton and Hove into two zones, an inner and outer, with maximum fares of 50p and £1 respectively. Only then will you get a real shift of people out of their cars and on to public transport.
