Question
To ask the Scottish Government what evaluation it has made to date of the trial of an all-day, off-peak fare on ScotRail services.
Answer
I refer the Member to the answer to question S6W-21967 on 18 October 2023.
An interim value for money assessment, which includes cross-modal impacts, using a multimodal evaluation of current travel patterns and impact to date in line with His Majesty’s Treasury Green Book principles to be undertaken of value for money is underway. At the end of the Pilot a final evaluation will be undertaken and the Scottish Government will carefully consider its impact and the long-term sustainability of such a proposition.
