nBus Price Changes

nBus Price Changes

11 June 2026

West Midlands

There will be some changes to nBus and nBus + Metro prices from 28th June 2026.

The current fare cap single fares are not affected and will remain the same:

Adult Single: * Still £3.00 *
Child Single: * Still £1.50 *
Available onboard from your driver

nBus ticket prices will increase by approximately 4.9% on average across the nBus range. The increase follows the annual review of nBus prices and has been agreed by Transport for West Midlands and all bus operators within the nBus zone. The new fares reflect inflation and the rising costs of running bus services.

Although some tickets prices will be increasing, nBus still offers passengers excellent value travel across multiple operators bus services across the West Midlands region.
