cheaper commuting

You could SAVE up to £170 a month!

Do you drive to and park at the rail station? Changing how you travel to the station

could save you a lot of money each month! At cheapercommuting.com we've price-

checked parking fees at 50 main railway stations across Britain.

Our survey (below) showed that, a typical rail commuter could save £103 a month by

travelling to the station by bus with a PLUSBUS season ticket (instead of driving and

parking at the rail station). The biggest saving we found was at Reading where

parking at the station costs £220 a month. Whereas a Reading PLUSBUS season

ticket is just £50 a month - giving a whopping monthly saving of £170!

Saving money is simple. Buy a PLUSBUS season ticket (with your rail season ticket at the station booking office, or online with some train company websites) then enjoy being driven to the station by bus. Just think of all the great things you could buy with the money you'll be saving! For information about PLUSBUS.
