A PROPOSAL by the South Wales I. Transport Co., Ltd., to increase revenue by limiting the use of season tickets to one round trip per day was rejected by the South Wales Traffic Commissioners at Swansea, last week. Mr. Idris Owen, chairman, said: "These tickets are clearly used by people who wish to make two round trips or less a day. It cannot be said that two return journeys in a day is making unreasonable use of season tickets." An application to increase fares on 85 routes, and raise revenue by £30,000 per year, was granted. The Commissioners also granted an application for increased fares on 269 stages of the Western Welsh Omnibus Co., Ltd. The advances are expected to bring in an additional £58.450 a year.
