Title: Stay local, pay local

One for the Big Chiefs of National Express.
When will SLPL fares come over to Coventry.
What about allowing the £1 short hop in other areas of the City?

You already have cheaper singles, day tickets weekly and 4 weekly than the rest of the West Midlands

True but that's not what I mean.
its unfair to charge £2.10 to go a couple of stops in Coventry suburbs when NX only charges a £1 to travel a fair way across the city centre. They are milking it for their shareholders from people who cannot always afford he high cost of travelling short distances. No wonder Coventry is seen as a car city.
Need to bring back fare stages.
