Fares are similar to bus fares from the same areas. For example, the fare from North Baddesley is £2.50 for a return journey (as at January 2006).
The Test Valley Concessionary Farepass is accepted and should be shown to the driver. Alternatively payment in cash can be made to the driver at the point of pick-up. Please note that drivers do not carry a float so it is best to have the correct fare ready.
