Get on Board with new bus fares in Greater Manchester

Simple and clear low bus fares will be available in Greater Manchester from Sunday 4 September, making it easier to get around the city-region and supporting people with the increased cost of living.
Travel for less on a bus

This will mean:

  • Adults will pay no more than £2 for a single bus journey, while a £5 1 day AnyBus Adult travelcard will cover unlimited bus travel within the 10 boroughs of Greater Manchester until 03.59am the following day.
  • Children aged five to 16 will pay no more than £1 for any single bus journey. The 1 day AnyBus Junior travelcard will cover unlimited bus travel within Greater Manchester for just £2.50 a day. 
  • Children under the age of five will continue to travel on buses for free.  

The new fares are being introduced 12 months ahead of the launch of the first franchised bus services in parts of Greater Manchester in September 2023, marking an important milestone in the delivery of the Bee Network.
