The tickets will be available for a “core coach network”, the bus company said on Friday. It will focus on large and medium-sized towns and cities.

Revenue dropped around 50% in April compared to the same month last year, National Express revealed, as the Government advised Britons to keep away from public transport.

Nevertheless, Ebitda (a measure of earnings before taking into account interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation) was positive and slightly ahead of expectations as National Express slashed costs by around £100 million.

Editor’s note: first and foremost - and rarely have I written down these words with more sincerity - I hope this finds you well.

Almost certainly you are here because you value the quality and the integrity of the journalism produced by The Yorkshire Post’s journalists - almost all of which live alongside you in Yorkshire, spending the wages they earn with Yorkshire businesses - who last year took this title to the industry watchdog’s Most Trusted Newspaper in Britain accolade.

And that is why I must make an urgent request of you: as advertising revenue declines, your support becomes evermore crucial to the maintenance of the journalistic standards expected of The Yorkshire Post. If you can, safely, please buy a paper or take up a subscription. We want to continue to make you proud of Yorkshire’s National Newspaper but we are going to need your help.
