Abstract

This week, Hannah Randolph is joined by Josh Hampson to discuss the permanent removal of Peak Fares on the Scotrail network. With significant price cuts to tickets taking place today, the episode dives into what this policy might mean for public transport use and how it could align with other policies, such as a congestion charge discussed in previous episodes. Discussing last year’s pilot of this policy, Hannah and Josh discuss what might be expected this time around and unpack the benefits, as well as drawbacks, to cheaper train tickets.
