The discounted fares were first introduced in July and enable people to travel by bus for just £1 (per single journey) on all city centre routes after 6pm, Monday to Sunday.

The council said in a press release: “The initiative lends support to the council’s ‘Let’s Get Southampton Moving’ campaign, which is designed to welcome people back to the city centre safely and support local people and businesses as Southampton recovers from the coronavirus pandemic. The extension of the £1 evening bus fares comes alongside the ongoing suspension of both on-street and off-street evening and Sunday parking charges in the city centre.”
