A Herefordshire bus company has decided to implement a fare price freeze for the next 12 months.

Sargeants Brothers said the freeze will also include all our school and student passes.

Managing Director Matt Evans said: “Like many businesses we are feeling the pressure particularly with fuel costs, but we believe that we need to try do something to help our valued customers within the community we serve with the ‘cost-of-living challenges’ that we are all currently facing. We would like to thank our customers for their continuing support”.

The bus company operates hourly services between Kington, Hereford, and Llandrindod Wells together with city services in Hereford.
