The Government understands the concern about the cost of some rail fares and the impact that this can have on people’s budgets. That is why the Government has ensured that regulated rail fares have, since 2014, risen no faster than RPI inflation. We, of course, continue to monitor our rail fares policies closely and keep them under review.
