A real retrograde step for the environment. Anyone who has a car will use that as it's cheaper, a ridiculous situation in the year 2018. Anyone without a car, and on a low income, will be seriously disadvantaged, no more trips to the seaside for lower income families. Shame on you Stagecoach.

Disgusting. They want us to use public transport and not our cars, not at those prices! Make public transport cheaper and we might use it.

Low paid working families with no car really need and appreciate the £1 child add on. Without it getting into Exeter by bus is a lot more money.

Shocking price increase. They will lose custom throughout school holidays as parents will be reluctant to pay so much.

Awful increase. How are families of 2 to 3 kids be able to afford to ride the bus. You should be ashamed of yourselves. Not like you don't make enough!!

This would make me seriously consider not using the bus at all. It just would not be a viable option for me with having 3 children.

You're not escorting the general public in a stretch hummer. You drop people off, usually on a bus that smells of urine and mildew. Pipe down and lower your ticket prices back to the original cost. You are taking advantage.

It will cause more air pollution. More people will drive their cars rather than using public transport!

I will be forced to not use the bus to take my children to school, so the bus company will be losing my fare and my childrens. A pity!

The bus fares are expensive as they are. Any further price increases will result in people preferring to take their cars & avoiding using buses altogether. For those of us rural customers who have also had a heavy reduction to bus services this April an increase in cost is further insult & one which will not be reflective of the service we receive. Isolate your most vulnerable families by making it unaffordable to leave their villages! Shame on you Stagecoach. Shame on you!
