£3.60 sounds like when Stagecoach first reduced the ticket prices when they bought Chester and Wirral. Now, fares in Eport are like £4.40 return for a 10 minute journey.
In my experience, my local fares are quite cheap because it's a QBP corridor but all other local routes are very highly priced and the quality isn't anything special. I think that overall, bus fares aren't as good value for money as they once were but I can see why they are so expensive (concessionary reimbursement).
This is why I drive! Much easier and cheaper. It’s been notorious in Ellesmere Port for a while now Re: Bus fares. A lot of people, however do rely on the bus more than I do to get into town, Cheshire Oaks and Chester etc.
Hope you are well Mark, I remember meeting you in Chester at a forum meal a few years back now.
