Welcoming the news, Deputy Minister for Climate Change, with a responsibility for transport, Lee Waters said: “Today’s announcement will make a real difference to individuals and families who are struggling to make ends meet as we face up to the cost-of-living crisis.

“As well as helping to put more money back into people’s pockets, this move will also provide a boost to the rail industry and encourage more people to make the switch to more sustainable travel.”

James Price, Transport for Wales CEO said: “We understand that the cost of living crisis is impacting our customers and we’d like to play our part in helping where we can. We still want to encourage them to travel sustainably and choose to use public transport.
