THE SCOTTISH GOVERNMENT EXTENDS SUSPENSION OF PEAK FARES ON SCOTRAIL TRAINS FOR SUMMER SEASON

Published date : 21 May, 2024

Almond Valley, Scotland - Angela Constance MSP has applauded the recent decision by the Scottish Government to eliminate peak fares on Scotrail trains for the summer season. The pilot program, which was initially launched last October and was supposed to end in June, has now been extended until the end of September.

In a statement, Angela Constance MSP expressed her support for the extension, stating, "I welcome the Scottish Government's decision to extend the suspension of peak fares on Scotrail trains for an additional three months. This move will benefit commuters in Almond Valley and beyond, allowing them to save money during rush hours."
