Unacceptable Stage Coach there should be a free scheme for children where ever they need to go on the Stage Coach network in Devon. I Believe this to be a human rights act violation as it picks on the poorer vulnerable parents, like pensioners that get also and quite rightly get it free and those on limited incomes.

The kids like going on the bus but this will make it cost too much to take them.

Stagecoach will loose any sympathy by being so underhanded with the approach to increase fares. The increase in fares for children is not acceptable. It will mean many children will have to walk distances that will make them tired before the day begins. It might be worth considering the removal of Stagecoaches Franchise.

This is totally unacceptable as people using buses are trying to survive on lower incomes and need access to buses to enable them to take their children out!

When this was introduced, it made a big difference to many families. Since then, with family incomes squeezed in every way, this measure could seriously impact some children's ability to attend school, go to dentist's and doctor's appointments, participate in sporting activities... the list goes on. For those families with a car this measure will deter them from using the buses. Please reconsider this disproportionate and unfair price rise!

With the increase in fares it will cost me and my children £50 week to get to school,a lot of mothers rely on public transport to get there children to school with prices like that.we are all going to struggle.

I catch the busses everyday with my child and couldn’t afford for it to go up! I would chose another method of transport if it does!
