There will be a rise of 20% on bus fares which has caused a massive uproar with its customers as Hamilton (the islands bus company) is known for its high prices, but there is no other public transport available).
The manager of Hamilton said "From July 20th we will raise the bus fares by 25% due to the recession and the rise in the cost of petrol. We have no other choice, if we do not rise the cost then we will be losing out on a lot of money. Yes i agree it is a shame that this has happened but because of this massive recession it is the decision we have chosen to make. The increase usually happens in February, but we do not have enough money to cover this massive cost."
This 20% rise will definitely happen on July 20th and it is thought that a lot less people will not be getting public transport anymore, which means that Hamilton will will still lose out on money.
