“We want a fair fare and integrated ticketing across train, bus, and subway. So, we want to put pressure on the SPT to act in the public's interest.'
Get Glasgow Moving said it is taking action in an effort to reduce fares in light of the cost-of-living crisis.
“This is a massive problem for people trying to get around the region and looking at how much buses cost in other parts of the UK, it’s really unfair that Glasgow has the highest fares. On Friday, Get Moving Glasgow will hand over their public petition, which went live in May, to SNP councillor Stephen Dornan.The rally will occur during STP’s third and final consultation meeting for the upcoming transport strategy - which will set the direction of public transport until 2037.
“We need to be encouraging people onto public transport, and it’s a real problem to just give free transport to certain groups. It stigmatises buses further and we want a public transport system that is so good everybody wants to use it.She continued: “We want to shame them into taking action and put pressure on them.
“We also introduced 'Tap On Tap Off' payment technology in the city to make it easier than ever before to travel by bus while offering customers the ultimate flexibility on the fare paid.
