The cap, which applies to more than 130 bus operator including those taking to and from Frome, will then rise in November to £2.50 for 12 months, before prices are reviewed.

Specifically it allows passengers to get into Bath with the D2 for just £2 from Market Place.

The cap on fares has now been extended twice after warnings hundreds of services could be cut without it.
