Changes to bus and tram fares from November

From 1 November 2023 changes to discounted fares and tickets will take place, to help protect South Yorkshire’s bus services:
  • Concessionary child single fares for holders of Zoom Under 16, and Zoom 16-18 Travel Passes will increase from 80p to £1.
  • The fare cap on tram services in South Yorkshire (funded locally by South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority) will rise to £2.80 until 30 November 2024.
Changes will also be made to the Zoom Beyond 18-21 card:
  • The 80p single fare on buses will rise to £1.50 on services run by First, Stagecoach and TM Travel. It will be withdrawn on services run by other operators – full adult fares will be charged, capped at £2.
  • The 80p single fare on Supertram will be replaced with a new £2 single (£4 return) fare.
The £2 single fare cap on buses will remain at £2, until 31 December 2024.

Ticket options


Single- and multi-operator discounted Daily, Flexi, 7-Day and 28-Day tickets for use on a combination of bus, tram and train services remain available for young people with a valid Zoom pass. Young people with a TravelMaster 18-22 Discount Card or Zoom Beyond 18-21 Pass can also benefit from a 15% discount on multi-operator TravelMaster tickets.
