Fare changes from Sunday 30 August
Yesterday
Our fares are changing from Sunday 30 August.
Single fares are still capped at £3 and will remain this way until further notice. Single fares in the Southampton Zone will be £2.70. Our popular £1 evening fare, available after 6pm, will also remain unchanged. All fares on our night buses (U1N, N1, N2, N9, N17, N18) will remain at £3.
For regular travellers and the best value tickets, we recommend our period passes which can be bought on the Unilink app. If you only travel occasionally, make use of our tap on tap off service where the best fare will be automatically calculated for you.
