I have a question for anyone who rides or drives London's buses.
I have heard mention of an Oyster card, and understand how that works. But obviously not everyone has one.
So what I would like to know is if I am going from point A to point C, and have to change buses at point B do you have to pay a second fare to board that second bus.
Here in Canada you only pay once and if you are transferring to another bus futher down the road you ask for a transfer, which is a proof of purchase that is presented to the driver of the second bus so that you don't have to pay again.
I can't ever remember seeing something similar when riding Birmingham and Derby buses, but that was some time ago.
Can anyone answer this.
The photo shows three transfers, one from St.Catharines Transit, one from Durham Region Transit, and the last from my town, Kingston Transit.
