'We understand for some, this will be unwelcome news'
Around half of NI Railways fares are rising again as the Department for Infrastructure and Translink look for “new revenue raising measures”.
They said the latest move will simplify rail pricing structures and more accurately reflect the mileage travelled, leading to fairer pricing for passengers. Translink director of commercial operations, David Cowan, said: “We have carefully carried out this review and worked hard to keep any increases to a minimum.
“We are very mindful of the need to keep public transport attractive and affordable. We will maintain a range of good value fare deals with iLink offering unlimited travel within key zones across NI. “We will work with all our stakeholders to promote these and remain confident that bus and train travel is still competitively priced, particularly given the rising cost of fuel.We have asked Translink which routes were historically reduced and are still waiting on comment.
"With a challenging budget allocation this year, the Department and its Arms-Length Bodies including Translink have had to consider new revenue raising measures to deliver public services,” they added.
