Route A tickets
Fastrack Route A operates an 'off vehicle ticketing' system.Tickets for Route A travel must be purchased before boarding the vehicle, either single/return tickets from the ticket machines located at stops or day, week and four-weekly tickets in advance from Arriva travel shops or the Bluewater transport centre. If using ticket machines at stops please have the correct coins available as machines do not accept notes or give change. Where a concessionary pass or combined rail/bus ticket (e.g. Greenhithe station - Bluewater transfer) is held, a ticket must still be obtained from the roadside machine before boarding.
Route B tickets
The full range of tickets is available for purchase from the driver on Route B services
Arriva day, weekly and four-weekly tickets
In addition to the above, Arriva day, weekly and four-weekly tickets are valid for travel on both Fastrack Routes A and B. These tickets may be purchased from the driver (Route B service only), from Arriva travel shops in Dartford and Gravesend, from the Bluewater travel centre and online here / on the promotional button to the right.
For full details of ticket validity visit the Arriva website. (Opens in a new window).
Holders of National Concession cards can use passes for boarding Fastrack buses between 0930-2300hrs Monday - Friday and all day on Saturday, Sunday and public holidays. Outside of these times full adult fare will be charged.
Child fare entitles those aged 16 or under to travel for half the adult single or return fare or up to 2 children can travel for 30p single each when accompanied by 2 passengers paying full adult fare.
Please note that child fares are not available before 0900am on Monday - Friday (except public holidays).
