| Comment | First Bus is purposely vague about the price of tickets on its website, which should be sanctioned by the authorities quite frankly. They know what they're doing, and it shouldn't be allowed.
It says "from" £1.70, which is technically correct in that if you travel 5 stops, your ticket should be priced at £1.70. Over 5 stops and it jumps to £2.50-£2.90 or something like that.
The important thing for the average traveller to know is that 5 stops in Glasgow is hardly any distance at all. Bus stops are spaced every 200-300m in most places (which far too short a distance between stops, and something that means bus journeys take longer, but I digress...). It means hardly anyone, ever, pays £1.70 for a bus trip in Glasgow. |
