Notes:

*Some tickets cost even less if you don't need to travel at busy times. These are called 'off-peak' fares and usually apply after 9.30am Monday to Friday and all day at weekends or public holidays. Other times are called 'peak' times; the 'peak travel' column shows if the ticket can be used then. Some companies' 'peak' times vary slightly so where a different time applies this is shown in the tables.

**Wayfarer can be used on buses at peak times.

***System One DaySaver Travelcards are sold and accepted by around 50 bus companies in Greater Manchester.
