Assuming a 5 day week and 48 weeks per year that's less than 23
pence per
mile.


Not forgetting that the large difference in price between Aylesbury
and Stoke Mandeville is because the latter has a larger car park and
they want to encourage commuters to travel from there instead...
although obviously for commuters without cars it can be considered a
little unfair. That being said, a month or longer season from
Aylesbury gives you free travel on Arriva buses within Aylesbury.
