A bus operator that provides services in Ipswich has explained the upcoming changes to fares - including the end of the return ticket.
Starting from Sunday, April 20, Ipswich Buses will be introducing a more simplified fare structure with a focus on rewarding customer loyalty.
Dan Bassett, managing director at Ipswich Buses, said: "We understand that the cost of living continues to be challenging for many people, and whilst we have had to make alterations to our fares, including increasing several prices, we have tried hard to maintain affordability and offer value for money for our customers.

"The removal of return tickets and adult transfer tickets, replacing them with discounted day tickets further simplify our fare structure, making ticketing easier to understand and buses easier to use."
The return ticket will be scrapped and replaced with a day ticket, while a single fare on journeys across the bus network in the town zone will be set at £2.30.
The change in fares comes after the removal of government funding of the £2 national bus fare cap as well as increases in operating costs.
