📖 About Route 1
The 1 is Peterborough’s busiest cross-city service, linking the Orton townships in the south-west — Orton Wistow, Orton Brimbles, Orton Southgate and Woodston — with Werrington in the north, through Queensgate Bus Station in the city centre.
It is the spine of the Citi network: buses pass Millfield and Walton on the northern leg, and the Orton leg serves the Ferry Meadows side of the city. If you are crossing Peterborough north–south, this is usually the bus you want.
🎟️ Fares & Payment
Single fares on Peterborough buses are capped at £3 under the England national fare cap (confirmed to run until March 2027), so no single journey in the city costs more. Pay by contactless bank card or phone, in the Stagecoach app, or with cash. Stagecoach day and period tickets are sold on bus and in the app, and PlusBus rail add-on tickets are valid on Peterborough buses; the Cambridgeshire & Peterborough Multibus ticket covers multiple operators for cross-operator days.
