rockchick80 10 #1 Posted September 24, 2013 Hi, I have a first mainline Sheffield weekly ticket (£11.50). Can I use this on a Stagecoach 120? Some people have said I can others I can't and I don't want to look a dimwit trying to get on a stagecoach with a first weekly ticket? Thank you in advance xXx Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

RollingJ 2,030 #5 Posted September 24, 2013 I was going to direct you to the 'optio' ticket info (services 52 & 120), but it seems to have disappeared. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
LeMaquis 10 #6 Posted September 24, 2013 My understanding is that bus-only tickets can be used on both companies' buses on the shared routes (52 and 120). My experience is that a lot of drivers don't know the rules and others turn a blind eye. If I were you just get on a Stagecoach bus if it's the first one to come along and ask the driver.

rockchick80 10 #8 Posted September 24, 2013 I asked as I got off and he went on about you can use the weekly Sheffield mainline on a 120 as it's a special route?!?!?! I'll just try my luck xXx Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

haddy 10 #11 Posted September 24, 2013 First Mainline? If you've got one of them tickers it will definitely be out of date. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
fozzybear210 10 #12 Posted September 25, 2013 Sorry but no you can't. If it says First week Sheffield on the ticket, it can only be used on First buses. As previously stated, only optio tickets can be used on shared operator routes. Hope this helps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
