Default Arriva fare information ???

Why can't I find any specific fare information for Arriva buses?

Not sure.

I Google searched "Arriva", which produced a link for www.arriva.co.uk,
selected "United Kingdom" from the bus drop-down menu, then in the new
window, selected "Greater London", went to Fares and Timetables, which in
turn referred me to http://www.tfl-buses.co.uk, where I selected "Fares and
tickets" on the left hand menu. I then downloaded the "Fares and tickets
2004" leaflet in PDF format, which listed all the tube, DLR, tram,
travelcard and bus fares...

I'm not a Londoner, so can't be more specific than that, but that PDF file
does seem to list bus fares at £1 for a single fare on "most routes in
London".

HTH,
Dave

Services concerned are not in Greater London, they're operated by Arriva
Shires & Essex, can't find single fares though, only day explorers etc.

Default Arriva fare information ???

Thanks guys. You found about as much as I did - no specific
information about single fares. However, I called Arriva and Green
line and here is what I found out about bus fa

Greenline coach #724 (Heathrow to Harlow) : £5.30/£6 single/day return
Arriva #510 (Harlow to Stansted Airport) : £3.60/£5.40 single/day
return

I've yet to find out about the #500 bus, but I'm sure it's going to be
around £5 for a single.

Thanks for the help and I hope this information is useful to somebody

Strangely, National Express (
http://www.nationalexpress.com/neh.cfm)
will offer to sell you a single from Heathrow to Harlow on the 724 for
only
GBP 5.00.

Mind you, IIRC they also charge a straight fiver for Heathrow to
Watford, which only costs 4 quid cash...

Actually they are partly in Greater London: from Romford to, roughly,
Havering-Atte-Bower are in bus zone 4 (6). Not sure if that stretch is
covered by TfL fares or not though.
