Railways: Fares
(asked on 4th June 2015) - View Source
Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what estimate he has made of average change in regulated rail fares between 2015 and 2016.
This question was answered on 12th June 2015
We have committed to capping regulated rail fares at the Retail Price Inflation (RPI) for five years from 2016 and we have also stopped operators increasing individual regulated fares by up to 2% more than RPI. Train operators will use the July 2015 RPI figure, published in August, to set regulated rail fares for 2016. Data on these fares will be published in December 2015.
